This suspension system is one of the best Ive experienced...and I am saying this after running on Bilstein (now B16 Damptronic) for most of my life. The robustness you feel is inmense!

I would go for this one any day for my M2...if it would not be my daily driver car...

Have you already driven an Öhlins equipped M2? I only know that Öhlins is absolutely seen as one of the best brands for Opel Speedster / Vauhall VX220 / and Lotus Elises. A friend of mine has Öhlins coilovers and they "suck up" the road as we say in Germany...

Can supply lower rate rear springs to complete a kit for the M2.

Not sure if KW is any different, but with TCKR and MCS M2 and M3/4 interchange.

E9x M3 kits were used on the E82 1M without any changes At the end Ohlins drop the damping firmness a bit for the lighter 1M, that was it.

For the E9x none m, those kits were used on the E8x 1 series.

We will likely see a lower rear spring and damping rates on the M2 kit next year.

In the mean time many have installed the Ohlins on the M2, some are okay with the rear rates and some chose to go lower. For those wanting the M2 kits, we can offer the rear springs at a substantial discount.

If you are willing to wait, that is a good option.

Will keep you guys posted with new information as we get them.

[jeff@autocouture]

Totally agree with HP Autosport, The kit for M3/4 and M2 are not substantially different. The rear spring rates could go lower for the M2 and if you absolutely want them lower there are tons of different places to get these springs. we will be putting together a nice Swift + Ohlins Package for those interested...

[HP Autosport]

It IS that simple ...and as dumb as it sounds.... some companies really hate creating another SKU... ..


it's common knowledge that the M4 and M2 share the same suspension components ... but you are welcome to wait ....

Yep, too many different SKU's to keep on hand.

Have a part#, but no specs yet.

[HP Autosport]

Just spoke to Ohlins USA. There is nothing official on it, no specs or price. Ohlins USA will continue to sell the F8x M3/4 kits until the M2 kits are available.

[HP Autosport]

Official USA release!

Price incoming.

No, the articulation is from the monoball bearing.

[DrKevM5]

I'm assuming you can run the ground control camber plates with this?
