BMW F87 M2 non-Competition (16-18) BC Racing DS coilover kit 6/12 kg/mm

The BC Racing DS coilover kit M2 F87 (part number I-75-DS-DA) is a coilover kit adjustable in height and damping, also simply called a coilover, for the BMW M2 F87, model years 2016 to 2018 (not the M2 Competition). The spring rate is 6 kg/mm front and 12 kg/mm rear.

The DS series is BC Racing’s track-focused coilover kit. The monotube dampers have a digressive piston that damps more firmly during slow body movements, between 0 and 50 mm/s. That keeps an M2 calmer during turn-in, braking and load changes, while the kit remains usable on the road.

The kit is made for M2 drivers who regularly do track days or have a sporty driving style. The part number ends in DA: pillowball top mounts or camber plates at the front, rubber or the original mounting at the rear. The damper body has a satin chrome finish.

Key benefits

• Digressive piston: firmer damping during slow body movements between 0 and 50 mm/s.
• 30-click damping adjustment: compression and rebound set together with a turn of the knob.
• Pillowball top mounts at the front: or camber plates (code DA), rubber or the original mounting at the rear.
• Ride height independent of spring preload: lower the M2 while the spring keeps its preload.
• Spring rate 6/12 kg/mm: the same as the BR kits for the M2 F87.
• Concave lower lock ring: locks the set height firmly.
• Satin chrome damper body: the recognisable finish of the DS series.
• Rebuildable: the dampers can be rebuilt.

Suitable for

BMW M2 F87 Coupe with rear-wheel drive, model years 2016 to 2018. Not suitable for the M2 Competition (2018 to 2021); the DS kit I-98-DS-DN is intended for that.

• Regular track days with the M2
• Sporty driving on winding roads
• An M2 that drives itself to the circuit and back home

Fitting and delivery

The kit is vehicle-specific and replaces the original dampers and springs. We recommend having it fitted by an experienced mechanic. On some cars the pillowball top mount at the front requires a small modification to the upper mounting; if in doubt, contact us. Have the wheel alignment checked after setting the ride height; especially for track use, a proper camber and toe setting pays off. The delivery time is 1 to 2 weeks as long as the manufacturer has stock. No stock at the manufacturer? You can still order and we will let you know when the kit is shipped.

For the BMW M2 F87, the BC Racing I-75-DS-DA combines a digressive monotube damper with pillowball top mounts at the front and springs of 6/12 kg/mm.

Why choose this DS coilover kit M2 F87?

The M2 F87 is already a sharp car in standard form, but on track you notice that the standard suspension is tuned for the road. Thanks to the digressive piston, the DS kit keeps the body calmer during quick changes of direction, and with 30 clicks you tune the damping for the circuit or the drive home. After a few seasons you can have the dampers rebuilt.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between the BC Racing DS and BR coilover kits for the BMW M2 F87?

The DS has a digressive piston and is track-focused, the BR a linear piston for the road with the occasional track day. As a result, the DS damps more firmly during slow body movements. The springs are 6/12 kg/mm on both; if you often drive the M2 on track, the DS coilover kit M2 F87 is the more likely choice.

Does the BC Racing DS coilover kit I-75-DS-DA fit a BMW M2 Competition?

No, this DS kit is for the BMW M2 F87 from 2016 to 2018. For the M2 Competition (2018 to 2021), BC Racing supplies the I-98-DS-DN, with rubber or the original mounting front and rear. Within the M2 up to 2018 there is only the rear-wheel-drive coupe, so you do not need to look out for a body variant.

Which top mounts does the BC Racing DS coilover kit for the BMW M2 F87 have?

Pillowball top mounts or camber plates at the front, and rubber or the original mounting at the rear; that is what the code DA indicates. On some cars the pillowball top mount at the front requires a small modification to the upper mounting, so contact us if in doubt.

What is the delivery time of the BC Racing DS coilover kit for the BMW M2 F87?

Normally 1 to 2 weeks, as long as the manufacturer has stock. If BC Racing temporarily does not have it in stock, you can still order and we will tell you the delivery date.
