E34 530i/540i Bilstein/H&R Sport Suspension Package

You can give your 530i or 540i better handling and reduce bodyroll with this set of sport springs and sport shocks. The key to managing the E34's weight in the corners is to reduce the ride height (and center of gravity) and stiffen the spring. This will better manage the body weight as you toss the car through the bends. This H&R/Bilstein sport suspension is packaged together to give you much improved handling.

H&R Sport springs lower the ride height by 1.3" in front and 1.0" in the rear and stiffens the spring rate. Both combine to lower the car's center of gravity and reduce the amount of bodyroll in corners. The springs are progressive rate so their initial stiffness is actually very compliant and it becomes stiffer as the spring is compressed. This is great for street cars that see bumps and potholes where suspension compliance is key. Overall, they are about 40% stiffer than the stock original springs.

We use Bilstein Sport shocks as the dampers and they feature Bilstein's patented and innovative valving system. On the E34, suspension travel is crucial especially with a lowered ride height. This suspension is stiff but delivers uncompromising handling. These fit with the stock strut and shock mounts, making for an easy and clean install. Because BMW used multiple combinations of front strut and strut mount we will need specific information from your car in order to send you the correct parts.

Parts list:

1 set - H&R Sport Springs

Fitment note: cars with the self-leveling rear suspension will need to have the system disabled or removed. You can add a S/L Delete Kit from the menu below.
Some very late E34 models were equipped with an EDC electronic damping system. This must be disabled to use this suspension.
