This version is listed for RWD models.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat you get\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe front uses true coilovers, while the rear stays divorced (separate spring and shock), matching how the car is built from the factory. Damper bodies are 52mm front and 46mm rear. It comes with 9 kg\/mm (about 504 lb\/in) springs up front and 6 kg\/mm (about 336 lb\/in) at the rear. Damping is 1-way: a single knob with 32 settings changes rebound and compression together, which keeps tuning quick. The front top mounts are aluminum with rubber bushings, with aluminum camber plates with pillowball bushings available as an option. At the rear, the mounts are aluminum with rubber bushings (optional: aluminum with pillowball bushings).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHighlights\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMonotube dampers, which shed heat well and hold their damping under hard use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e32-level damping adjustment, rebound and compression combined on one adjuster\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt-in dust boots and bump stops\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBolt-on install with no modifications, unless the notes below say otherwise\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRide height lowers roughly 1 to 2.5 inches below stock (SF Racing's figure) without giving up suspension travel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndependent lower mount adjustment keeps spring preload and damper travel where they should be when you change height\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eT6-6061 aluminum hardware (top mounts, perches and collars), anodized against corrosion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eZinc-plated shock bodies for rust protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCold-wound SAE9254 spring steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNOK seals and Italian IP damping oil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho it suits\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA good fit if the car is driven on the street most of the time and you want a lower stance with better body control.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePart number\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSF-BM03-03-SP\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVehicle\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1996-2003 BMW 5 Series Touring\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChassis\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eE39\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDrivetrain\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRWD\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDamper model\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSport Series\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDamping\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1-Way: Rebound and Compression\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDamper size (front \/ rear)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e52mm diameter \/ 46mm diameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpring rate (front \/ rear)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9 kg\/mm \/ 6 kg\/mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDesign (front \/ rear)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTrue Coilover \/ Divorced (Separate shock and spring)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTop mounts (front)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStandard: Aluminum with Rubber Bushings \/ Optional: Aluminum Camber Plates with Pillowball Bushings\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTop mounts (rear)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStandard: Aluminum with Rubber Bushings \/ Optional: Aluminum with Pillowball Bushings\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"SPRINGRATES®","offers":[{"title":"Front: 9K \/ Rear: 6K","offer_id":67656427110701,"sku":"SF-BM03-03-SP","price":995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Front: 10K \/ Rear: 6K","offer_id":67656427143469,"sku":"SF-BM03-03-SP","price":995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0964\/8295\/1469\/files\/sf-racing-sport-coilovers-for-1996-2003-bmw-5-series-touring-e39-1194285423.jpg?v=1792172402","url":"https:\/\/lowerhq.com\/products\/sf-racing-sport-coilovers-for-1996-2003-bmw-5-series-touring-e39","provider":"LowerHQ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
