The AST Suspension Lowering Springs for the 1994-1998 BMW 3 Series (E36) are high-performance coil springs designed to lower the vehicle's ride height by 50mm. Constructed from premium high tensile chromium-silicone wire, these springs are carefully handpicked for their quality and metal consistency. Each spring undergoes a rigorous manufacturing process that includes cold winding, heat treatment to enhance hardness and reduce internal stresses, and individual shot peening. The springs are then phosphate treated and powder coated to ensure durability and longevity, surpassing the lifespan of the vehicle. Featuring progressive rates on most applications, these springs improve handling, stability, and aesthetics while maintaining ride comfort.

Designed specifically for the E36 chassis from 1994 to 1998, these springs are compatible with BMW 3 Series models including the 316i and 318i Compact. They serve as an effective upgrade for enthusiasts seeking a lowered stance and improved performance without sacrificing reliability. Installation is straightforward as a direct replacement for stock springs, providing a bolt-on upgrade. The kit includes the lowering springs themselves, with no additional components required. Ideal for street and spirited driving, these springs enhance cornering and overall driving dynamics while maintaining ride quality and durability over time.
