Description
BMW F80/F82 M3/M4 3-bolt True Rear (14-20) BC Racing ER coilover kit 6/6 kg/mm
The BC Racing ER coilover kit M3 M4 F80 3-bolt True Rear (part number I-132-ER) is a coilover kit adjustable in height and damping, also simply called a coilover, for the BMW M3 F80 and M4 F82 with front top mounts secured by 3 bolts, model years 2014 to 2020, in True Rear version. The spring rate is 6 kg/mm front and 6 kg/mm rear.
The ER series is a 2-way adjustable coilover kit with external reservoir, made for serious track and competition use. You set compression and rebound independently of each other, each in 30 clicks, so you can tune the bump and rebound of the M3 or M4 separately to the circuit and tyres.
The monotube dampers have two pistons, a digressive characteristic and fully synthetic oil with a very high viscosity index. In this True Rear version the spring also sits around the damper at the rear. The kit is intended for cars with front top mounts secured by 3 bolts.
Key benefits
- 2-way adjustable: compression and rebound each in 30 clicks, independently of each other.
- External reservoir: monotube dampers with double piston and a separate reservoir.
- Digressive damping: firm control over slow body movements.
- Fully synthetic oil: with a very high viscosity index.
- True Rear: a coilover at the rear as well, with the spring around the damper.
- For 3-bolt top mounts: on the M3 F80 and M4 F82 with this front mounting.

- Check valve as an option: alongside optional rubber top mounts.
- Rebuildable: the dampers can be rebuilt.

Fitting and delivery
The kit is vehicle-specific and replaces the original dampers and springs. We recommend having it fitted by an experienced mechanic. Please note: BC Racing specifies that the body shell must be reinforced before a True Rear kit is fitted. Check beforehand that the front top mounts of your car are secured with 3 bolts. After adjusting the ride height, have the alignment re-measured and then fine-tune the damping step by step on a test day. The delivery time is 1 to 2 weeks as long as the manufacturer has stock. If BC Racing cannot supply the kit straight away, you can still order it and we will keep you informed.
The BC Racing ER kit I-132-ER for the BMW M3 F80 and M4 F82 with 3-bolt top mounts has 30 clicks of compression and 30 clicks of rebound, adjustable independently of each other, and 6/6 kg/mm springs.
Why choose this ER coilover kit M3 M4 F80 3-bolt True Rear?
With a kit that has combined adjustment, compression and rebound always change together. With the ER you set them separately, so you can tune an M3 or M4 more precisely to a circuit, a type of tyre or your driving style. The external reservoir and the synthetic oil make the kit suitable for serious track work, and with True Rear the rear gets a complete strut as well.

Frequently asked questions
Which BC Racing ER True Rear coilover kit fits my BMW M3 F80 or M4 F82: I-132 or I-133?
The number of bolts on the front top mount decides: 3 bolts is I-132-ER, 5 bolts is I-133-ER. You count them on top of the front strut towers. If in doubt, send us a photo or your chassis number and we will help you choose the right kit.
Does the BC Racing ER True Rear coilover kit I-132-ER fit every BMW M3 F80 and M4 F82?
No, only the M3 F80 Sedan and M4 F82 Coupe with 3-bolt front top mounts, model years 2014 to 2020, with rear-wheel drive. For cars with 5-bolt top mounts there is the I-133-ER, and for the M4 Convertible (F83) the fitment has not been confirmed; please contact us in that case.
What is the difference between the BC Racing ER and ZX True Rear coilover kits for the BMW M3 F80 and M4 F82?
The ER is 2-way adjustable, the ZX 3-way. With the ZX you set not only the rebound but also the low-speed and high-speed compression separately, in 20 and 12 clicks. The ER coilover kit M3 M4 F80 3-bolt True Rear is intended for serious track use; the ZX for competition, long sessions and demanding drifting.
