What is the main difference between a rigid disc and a sprung disc clutch?

A rigid disc clutch has no springs in the disc assembly, leading to a more direct and immediate engagement feel. A sprung disc clutch incorporates springs to absorb some of the shock during engagement, offering a smoother, more cushioned feel.

Does this clutch kit include a flywheel?

This Clutch Masters FX250 kit includes the pressure plate, rigid clutch disc, and release bearing. It does not include a flywheel, which is typically resurfaced or replaced separately during a clutch job.

What kind of driving is this clutch kit best suited for?

The rigid disc design makes this clutch kit well-suited for performance driving, including spirited street use and track applications where immediate engagement is desired. It's also a good option for vehicles with engine modifications that increase power output.

About this part

Product Details

The rigid disc in this Clutch Masters FX250 kit is a key design choice for drivers who want a more direct connection to their drivetrain. Unlike sprung discs that offer a bit of cushion, a rigid disc engages more immediately, which can be beneficial for spirited driving and track use. This particular kit is built for a range of BMW models, including the 135i, 335i, and 535i, all powered by their potent 3.0L twin-turbo engines.

Clutch Masters has a solid reputation for making well-built clutch components, and this FX250 kit is no exception. It's designed to handle more power than the stock clutch, making it a popular choice for those who have modified their engines or plan to. The kit includes the pressure plate, a rigid disc, and a release bearing, giving you the essential parts for a clutch replacement. While it's a rigid disc, Clutch Masters engineers their kits to offer a manageable pedal feel, so it's not overly harsh for daily driving, though you will notice a more positive engagement compared to stock.

When installing a clutch kit like this, it's always a good idea to have a flywheel resurfaced or replaced at the same time to ensure optimal performance and longevity. This ensures a flat surface for the new clutch disc to mate with. This Clutch Masters FX250 kit is a strong option if you're looking to upgrade your BMW's clutch to handle increased performance demands or simply want a more responsive feel.
