Description
BMW F87 M2 non-Competition (16-18) BC Racing RM coilover kit 6/12 kg/mm
The BC Racing RM coilover kit M2 F87 (part number I-75-RM-MA) 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.
BC Racing’s RM series was developed for track days, hill climbs and tarmac rally. On MacPherson struts BC Racing uses an inverted monotube damper, on other suspension types an upright monotube. The digressive piston works with fully synthetic oil with a very high viscosity index.
For the M2 F87 this kit has the code MA: pillowball top mounts or camber plates at the front, rubber or the original mounting at the rear. You set the damping in 30 clicks and the ride height infinitely via the damper body. If you mainly drive your M2 on the road, look at the BR or DS first; the RM is made for the track.

Fitting and delivery
The kit is vehicle-specific and replaces the original dampers and springs. We recommend having it fitted by an experienced mechanic. BC Racing advises periodic greasing of the RM and ZR series and recommends them less for road use than the BR, DS, ER or ZX. After setting the height, have the wheel alignment adjusted, because camber and toe change as well. The delivery time is 1 to 2 weeks as long as the manufacturer has stock. If the RM kit is temporarily out of stock at BC Racing, you can still order and we will keep you informed.
For the BMW M2 F87 from 2016 to 2018, BC Racing supplies the RM coilover kit I-75-RM-MA with a digressive piston, synthetic oil and springs of 6 kg/mm front and 12 kg/mm rear.
Why choose this RM coilover kit M2 F87?
If your M2 goes to the circuit or a hill climb more often than to the office, the RM series is made for that use. The kit combines a digressive piston with fully synthetic oil with a very high viscosity index, and pillowball top mounts or camber plates at the front. Do bear in mind the periodic greasing that BC Racing advises for this series.
