Description
BMW F87 M2 Competition (18-21) BC Racing DS coilover kit 6/12 kg/mm
The BC Racing DS coilover kit M2 Competition (part number I-98-DS-DN) is a coilover kit adjustable in height and damping, also simply called a coilover, for the BMW M2 Competition F87, model years 2018 to 2021. The spring rate is 6 kg/mm front and 12 kg/mm rear.
The DS series is BC Racing’s track-focused coilover kit, and for the M2 Competition there is a dedicated DS kit, separate from the one for the M2 from 2016 to 2018. The monotube dampers have a digressive piston that damps more firmly during slow body movements, from 0 to 50 mm/s.
This kit has the code DN: rubber or the original mounting front and rear. This way you combine track-focused damping with mounts that absorb vibrations. You set the damping in 30 clicks, the ride height independently of the spring preload, and the damper body has a satin chrome finish.
Key benefits
- Digressive piston: firmer during slow body movements between 0 and 50 mm/s.
- 30-click damping adjustment: compression and rebound together per damper.
- Rubber or original mounting front and rear: code DN, absorbs vibrations.
- Ride height independent of spring preload: adjust the height without adding extra preload to the spring.
- Spring rate 6/12 kg/mm: the same as the BR kit for the M2 Competition.
- Concave lower lock ring: the height setting stays fixed.
- Satin chrome damper body: the hallmark of the DS series.
- 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. After setting the height, a wheel alignment is required because camber and toe shift; for track use, a careful setup pays off. The delivery time is 1 to 2 weeks as long as the manufacturer has stock. If BC Racing temporarily has the DS kit out of stock, you can still order and we will let you know when it is shipped.
The BC Racing I-98-DS-DN is the DS coilover kit for the BMW M2 Competition F87, with a digressive monotube damper, rubber or original mounting front and rear and springs of 6/12 kg/mm.
Why choose this DS coilover kit M2 Competition?
If you regularly take the M2 Competition to the track, you want suspension that stays composed there. The DS kit keeps the body more stable on turn-in and during load changes thanks to the digressive piston, while the rubber mounts keep the kit comfortable for the drive home. When the dampers need servicing after a few seasons, you can have them rebuilt.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between the BC Racing DS and BR coilover kits for the BMW M2 Competition?
The DS is track-focused with a digressive piston, the BR is the all-rounder with a linear piston. As a result, the DS damps more firmly during slow body movements. For the M2 Competition, both have 6/12 kg/mm springs and rubber or the original mounting front and rear; if you often drive on track, choose the DS coilover kit M2 Competition.
Does the BC Racing DS coilover kit I-98-DS-DN fit a BMW M2 from 2016 to 2018?
No, the I-98-DS-DN is for the M2 Competition F87 from 2018 to 2021. For the M2 F87 from 2016 to 2018, BC Racing supplies its own DS kit, the I-75-DS-DA. BC Racing does not mention the M2 CS in the application list; if you have an M2 CS, please contact us.
Which top mounts does the BC Racing DS coilover kit for the BMW M2 Competition have?
Rubber or the original mounting, front and rear; that is what the code DN in the part number indicates. Rubber absorbs vibrations and noise, which is pleasant if the M2 Competition is also driven a lot on the road.
How quickly is the BC Racing DS coilover kit for the BMW M2 Competition delivered?
Normally within 1 to 2 weeks, as long as the manufacturer has stock. If the kit is temporarily sold out at BC Racing, you can still order and we will keep you informed.
