BMW F80 M3 and F30 335i Bilstein B16 Coilover Review

Yes Sr 🔥🔥

Finally!

Nice review Bryan. I can’t wait to change my setup.

I was DEF looking at B16 for the 2018 340..

Did you do an alignment?

Well done yall, the B16 setup on my F32 absolutely transformed the car!

I be wondering do these expensive coilovers be worth it

Hi Bryan, thank you for the great review. Would you say that adjustment range between modes for damptronic b16 is as narrow as the range you mentioned for the F30 adjustable kit you have? I have an F30 with EDC hence the dilemma between damptronic or manual adjustment kit

Next time we are at NJMP let’s swap rides for a session and see how they compare

I want the best feeling suspension but i dont plan to track my car, just street Digs here and there, my NYC streets has alot of potholes and bumps

Thank you very much Bryan, was actually waiting for a proper review.
Man of his word

Will these work on a f34 335gt non m?

What about neo max and bc

What if you remove the front axles on xdrive🤔

Great review thank you, now I know which one to get for my F32.. I had to cancel my order unfortunately because of the long lead time but I plan on eventually getting the b16 with EDC control like you mentioned in the M3..

Great review🤟

Great review I'm def considering the B16 for my F82 it's time

Why does the F30 have mis-matched badges?

I just purchased the B14s for my 330, can I assume the ride will be similar to the B16s?

B16 on my f34 340 rides incredible I have the dampeners on 3 out of 10 (1 being softest) and shes rides like a dream I dropped it an 1-1/2 riding on 19in rims looks OE+ very subtle but the performance is next level shot hooks an books

I bougth the Bilstein B6 with EDC on eibach pro kit springs in my F82 M4, But the B6 dont arrive yet. I see how its goes very soon (i hope 😬😬😬)

loving my 1 month old B16 on my 340i, 1inch drop
perfect 30 min daily highway drive to work
perfect for weekend/days off steep mountain cruise/run

My biggest complaint with the F80 is how unsettled and nervous the car feels over imperfect roads. How do the bilsteins feel in that aspect?

Ever tried KW DDC plug&play or KW DDC ECU ?

Should be a lot more comfy

Actually I have my 335 xDrive set too low and now have exactly that problem with the driveshaft driverside…

Thanks for posting this. I've been waiting for it

Not bad video. However, I think dropping a car is, nowadays, overrated.

You want it to look dropped by rolling the fenders without actually dropping it...plus, with a Plus 2 wheelset upgrade.

I would add sway bars, too, and set the coilovers on the softest or near the softest setting for the street...like number 2 or 3.

I read Eibach, too, might be the ultimate in ride quality.

More supple tires, too, like Michelin Pilots or Continentals would help, too.

To me, BMW seats are way too firm. I would definitely try Recaros.

Hi just one question, what is the best engine oil for 2018 bmw 340i? Thanks.

which makes the car lower bilstein or kw?

How low is your 335 in front?

How much lower do the B16 coilovers sit at their highest setting compared to stock?

Thank you. I’m a huge fan of this page. I have a question. I am looking to purchase the 345i xdrive touring. However, I only want to get it if I could lift it the way a the Subaru Crosstrek looks. The Crosstrek has a ground clearance of 8.7 inches off the ground. What are your thoughts? Is this possible without complicating things?

Very beneficial video thank you B

Do you know how many MM you lowered it?

for track build you should go for 18 smaller wheels and 35 profile tires. larger wheels are actualy slower

really sad to see people just go for max drop without understanding what else changes along with the drop in the suspension geometry and why more doesn't at all mean better

do they help the f80 with traction at all?

If anyone has the b16 electronic dampening suspension kit, can you let me know if it works with the factory drive mode select button

Can I get these Bilstein Coilovers without lowering the car much? I live in NYC and the roads are horrible... I dont want my daily driving to feel like my car is rolling down the side of a mountain every day

KW FTW

Hi there 🤝 Thank you for the review. I am seriously considering buying Bilstein b16 set for my Mazda 3 MPS. But I have come across some different informations. Could you please tell me what version are you running, because I heard there is normal and comfort version? I have seen some b16s with one spring on the strut or two springs on the strut as main spring and little "helper" spring.
Thank you for your reply 🍀

I know this is a little old of a video but how do you think these compare to the Bilstein Evolve Damptronic shocks? Evolve seems to have wanted more distinct settings, more comfort and more sport outta their setup. I’d love to know what you thought.

Thanks for the review, really helps make a choice on the right setup. Weighing between pss10 b16 vs kw ddc. Leaning more towards ddc for my needs.

is it crazy to put these on my jetta

I put B16 PSS10 "comfort" models (30mm max lowering) and it's a crazy night and day difference in my F36 BMW. I usually put them 5-5 clicks in the front-rear and it's already much better than the stock sport suspension. When i put them in 1-1 clicks (most comfortable) to ride in poor quality roads, bro, it's crazy comfortable, like a mercedes, very smooth, very composed, filters almost all the imperfections on the road. Then to have some real fun in a track day or mountain roads, 8-8 clicks front/rear and goes around turns like a kart hahahaha Don't hesitate to buy B16's for your car!
