Description
BMW F87 M2 True Rear (16-18) BC Racing ZX coilover kit 6/6 kg/mm
The BC Racing ZX coilover kit M2 True Rear (part number I-143-ZX) is a coilover kit adjustable in height and damping, also simply called a coilover, for the BMW M2 F87, model years 2016 to 2018, in True Rear version. The spring rate is 6 kg/mm front and 6 kg/mm rear.
The ZX series is BC Racing’s 3-way adjustable coilover kit for competitive track use, long sessions and demanding drifting. You set low-speed compression (20 clicks), high-speed compression (12 clicks) and rebound (30 clicks) each separately.
In the ZX, BC Racing combines the basis of the DS with the external reservoir of the ER: upright monotube dampers with a double piston, digressive and filled with racing oil with a very high viscosity index. Because this is the True Rear version, the rear is also built as a coilover with the spring around the damper.
Key benefits

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 requires the body shell to be reinforced before a True Rear kit is fitted. After setting the ride height, have the wheel alignment readjusted and fine-tune the three damping settings in small steps. The delivery time is 1 to 2 weeks as long as the manufacturer has stock. If the ZX is temporarily unavailable from BC Racing, you can still order; we will let you know the expected delivery date.

Why choose this ZX coilover kit M2 True Rear?
With three separate settings per damper you tune the M2 precisely: how the car reacts to slow body movements, to sharp impacts and during extension. That makes the ZX suitable for long sessions, competition and drift work. The True Rear design and the rebuildable dampers suit an M2 that spends a lot of time on track.
