Bilstein B12 Pro Kit Suspension for BMW E34 5 Series – Part Number BILSTEIN-46-190888
Transform the way your BMW E34 drives with the Bilstein B12 Pro Kit. This proven spring and damper package combines Bilstein B8 high-performance shock absorbers with Eibach Pro-Kit springs for a confident, road-focused suspension upgrade that enhances handling, stability and stance. Often searched as BMW E34 coilovers, this fixed-rate spring and damper kit delivers the look and performance people want from coilovers while maintaining daily drivability and OE-level reliability.
Lowering range: typically 10 mm to 30 mm depending on application. Expect tighter body control, sharper turn-in, reduced dive and squat, and a purposeful ride height that suits the classic E34 lines.
