How to choose the setup

Choose the spring package around tire grip, track frequency and the intended ride quality. FRS means Fast Road Specification; TDS means Track Day Specification. These are spring/build choices, not electronic driving modes. The supplier base part number alone does not capture every ordered configuration.

Coilover or divorced rear springs

A divorced rear arrangement keeps the spring separate from the damper. A rear coilover places the spring around the damper. Select the intended rear layout in the options; it is an installation choice rather than a cosmetic preference. Have the installer check the load path, mounts, spring clearance and travel for the selected arrangement.

Factory electronic damping

This is a manually adjusted suspension kit. If the car has factory electronically controlled dampers, confirm the appropriate cancellation or conversion hardware with the installer. The listing should not be interpreted as retaining factory electronic damper adjustment.

Installation and ordering

Provide the model year, chassis, factory suspension equipment and intended use when specifying the order. Have the installer verify the mounts, usable travel, wheel clearance and any required electronic hardware. Confirm lead time for the selected configuration; catalog availability is not a promise of immediate dispatch.

Product FAQs

Do high- and low-speed compression refer to road speed?

No. They refer to damper shaft movement speed. A sharp suspension input can involve high shaft speed even at a low vehicle speed.

How should I approach the first damping adjustments?

Establish a suitable baseline, change one setting at a time and record the result on a repeatable route or session. Keep the tire and vehicle setup consistent while assessing changes.

What vehicle details matter when specifying the BMW F80 M3 kit?

Provide the model year, exact model, factory damping equipment and existing suspension changes, together with the intended road and track use.
