Product details
This 2012-2013 BMW 3 Series Kontrol Sport set uses 10.5 kg/mm front springs and 14 kg/mm rear springs. Each damper arrives sprung and valved for the car, and the valving is 30% stiffer than the standard Kontrol Pro.
Damping adjustment spans 36 levels on one knob per damper. The adjustment moves compression and rebound at the same time, and the monotube high-pressure body keeps oil and gas apart so heat leaves faster and more evenly.
Ride height is set on the adjustable lower mount where the application has one, and shock travel stays intact while lowering. Lock every collar with both spanner wrenches. Mounts and collars are 6061-T6 billet aluminum, and the kit is also listed for 2006-2011 BMW 3 Series sedans and 2008-2011 BMW 1 Series RWD cars. Use the year, make and model checker to confirm your car before buying.
Supported features
36 levels of damping adjustment let you dial the system in for handling and comfort. Adjustment alters compression and rebound together for effective, user-friendly setup changes.
Oil and gas stay separated within the cylinder. Compared with twin-tube construction, a monotube dissipates heat faster and more evenly, allows finer damping adjustment, and resists aeration and cavitation for consistent ride quality.
Many MacPherson-strut applications use pillowball top mounts front and rear, installing to OEM specifications. The patented mount adds adjustability, combats noise, and sharpens steering feel and response.
Most applications adjust ride height without losing suspension travel, so you reach the height you want without bottoming out the shock. Separate rear shock-and-spring applications adjust at the spring perch and lower mount.
KSport's advanced upper pillowball mount is available on many applications, giving separate camber and caster adjustment for alignment work and removing the need for a separate camber kit.
Mounts, collars, and spring perches are machined from 6061-T6 billet aluminum for a lightweight, durable, corrosion-resistant build. Steel shock bodies are zinc-plated for added protection from corrosion.

Installation
Set ride height with the adjustable lower mount where the application has one; use the spring perch only where the application-specific layout has no adjustable lower mount. Lock every collar with both spanner wrenches. Start damping 18 clicks counterclockwise from full stiff and adjust from there. Professional setup and alignment are required after installation; on MacPherson fronts, establish baseline camber at the elongated lower-mount hole before fine adjustment at the upper plate.
