BMW Suspension Parts for BMW 1 Series E82 (2008-2013)

The ECS Coilover Line was designed with the "daily drivers" in mind! Focused on improving the performance and aesthetics of your vehicle without forgetting comfort. With 32 levels of available damping and height adjustments tailored to each car, ECS coilovers are right in that sweet spot of firm and compliant while giving you an aggressive look and vastly improved handling.

The ECS Tuning Performance Coilover System provides a sport-tuned, height, damping, and body adjustable suspension with substantial performance benefits using high-quality materials and coatings to replace your worn suspension, all while giving your vehicle that perfect ride height!

PERFORMANCE FEATURES

32 levels of rebound damping adjustment
Integrated camber plates for +/-1.5 degrees of adjustment to dial in your fitment and alignment
Ride height adjustment: 1" - 3.5" drop
Heat treated, progressive rate coil springs.
Adjustable damping, monotube shocks/struts paired with optimized progressive rate coil springs gives your vehicle road-sticking grip with reduced body roll for exceptional confidence in your vehicle's handling. With your vehicle's new, lower ride height the center of gravity is now moved lower, further improving handling performance
Adjustable front bodies allow you to set the ride height while maintaining correct spring pre-load
Adjustable front and rear bodies allow the shock to operate in the correct valving range, regardless of ride height

PRODUCT DESIGN

Strut and shock bodies finished with a durable gloss black powder coat for good looks and great longevity
Threaded portions are are zinc-coated for optimum corrosion protection against rain and salt (finish will vary between clear or black zinc coatings depending on availability)
Coil springs are powder-coated Reflex Silver Metallic finish for durability

PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT

ECS Tuning Adjustable Damping Coilover Systems are developed in-house, tested and inspected by the Research & Development team in our Wadsworth, Ohio facility. The highest level of precision and quality through leading-edge product development technology and methods, ensuring the necessary long term product testing was performed on multiple test vehicles in the harshest conditions available.

The original factory bushings are fluid filled and rely on the fluid to absorb vibration and resist deflection. When the fluid is gone the rubber left over cannot match the original bushing's strength. The left over rubber is not stiff enough to resist the movements from the suspension. The result is a lot of vibration and reduced feedback and response from the steering. 

Meyle has addressed this issue with bushings that are not fluid-filled. The bushing is made of solid rubber that will last longer than the original bushing and is a bit stiffer than new originals for better response and feel. The lack of play from the solid rubber design will mean sharper steering, restoring much of the car's precision and 'connected' feel. 

This control arm comes with the Meyle HD bushings already pressed in. This makes for an easy swap out-swap in install. These arms replace the existing stock upper control arms - otherwise known as a tension strut or strut support arm. It's the arm with the twist. 

Meyle is a German brand in business since 1958 and all of their products are TUV approved and meet or exceed ISO standards. All Meyle HD parts come with a 4-year, unlimited mileage warranty. 

Features:

• 4 Year Warranty

• All metal ball joints are more reliable and longer lasting than stock

• Bushings are solid rubber rather than fluid filled, providing longevity and handling feel improvements

This item fits the following BMWs:
2007-2013 E82/88 BMW All submodels

To reduce the understeering affects of a staggered wheel setup you want a balanced set of sway bars. ECS has configured this anti-roll bar set for E82 1-series and E9X 3-series with a 28mm front bar and a 15mm rear bar. This kit is designed to help reduce the amount of body roll when cornering and enhance response when turning. These anti-roll bars include urethane bushings with a reinforced inner liner that eliminates squeaks and doesn't require lubrication. The bars are powder coated for durability and good looks.

These bars fit in the stock locations using the existing brackets and links. Adjustable links are not required but recommended if the car is lowered or if you have coil overs.

This item fits the following BMWs: 
2008-2013 E82 E88 BMW 128i 135i 1M Coupe
2006-2011 E90 BMW 325i 328i 330i 335d 335i M3 - Sedan
2007-2011 E91 BMW 325i 328i - Touring Wagon
2007-2013 E92 BMW 328i 335i 335is M3 - Coupe
2007-2013 E93 BMW 328i 335i 335is M3 - Convertible

When an E9X is lowered beyond the limits of just lowering springs, the rear wheels toe-in excessively. This excessive rear toe leads to premature wear, that many people attribute to an increase in negative camber. It has become a common belief that an extremely low vehicle will wear the tires wrong as a matter of consequence. It has become standard practice to go as low as you can and proceed to replace your tires every five to ten thousand miles. Whats more is that when the vehicle reaches a certain ride height, the factory arms become maxed out and there is no way to compensate and dial in the proper toe. You're left with an improperly aligned vehicle that is in effect worse off than it was with the stock suspension installed.

This is not only uneconomical but improper and unsafe. ECS Tuning is proud to offer a solution for this problem in the form of Rogue Engineering E9X adjustable rear toe arms. These arms allow for greater toe adjustment on vehicles that have been lowered with a coilover suspension. With the toe set properly the tires can contact the road properly this maximizes grip and minimizes wear. 

Features:

• 100% machined and anodized, 6061-T6 lightweight aluminum arms
• High-strength, 3-piece, rod end (with carbon fiber reinforced, PTFE race) offers longer life for street compared to standard rod ends
• SEALS-IT Rod end seals keep dirt, water, and other contaminants out
• Rod ends feature grease fittings, to allow for rod end serviceability.
• Lighter than stock!  (Stock is 875g, RE arms are 640g)
• Extremely easy installation and adjustment (your alignment shop will LOVE you!)

BMW E9X M3/E82 1M Inner Lower Tension Arm Bearing is engineered to elevate suspension performance with precision and durability.
