What is the expected drop in ride height for my BMW 1 Series?

These AST lowering springs are designed to provide a 50mm drop on the front and a 35mm drop on the rear for the specified BMW 1 Series models. This change will lower your vehicle's center of gravity.

Are these springs compatible with my stock shocks?

These springs are designed as a direct replacement for your OEM springs and are intended to work with your vehicle's original shocks. However, for optimal performance and longevity, it is often recommended to pair lowering springs with performance-oriented or matched shock absorbers.

What does the lifetime warranty against breaking cover?

The lifetime warranty against breaking covers the springs themselves against manufacturing defects that cause them to break under normal driving conditions. It ensures you have peace of mind with your purchase.

About this part

Product Details

These AST lowering springs are cold-coiled on Wafios coiling machines, a detail that speaks to their well-built nature. They are designed to replace your BMW 1 Series (E81/E87) factory springs, offering a way to lower your vehicle's center of gravity. This can lead to improved handling characteristics by reducing body roll during cornering, without sacrificing too much of the comfortable ride you expect from the original equipment.

The progressive design of these springs aims to strike a balance between achieving a lower stance and enhancing performance. They are specifically developed for each vehicle application, meaning they are not a one-size-fits-all solution. This careful development helps ensure they work well with your car's existing suspension geometry. The springs come with a lifetime warranty against breaking, offering solid peace of mind for your investment.
