Will 335I coils fit a 135I

peasouped · 10-16-2013, 02:11 PM

I have a friend selling his brand new KW's and he will give me a killer deal. I've found mixed feeling on if they would fit properly on a 135i. I would think they would just be much stiffer? Anyone here try it yet?

the answer is no.
fitment wise yes.....performance wise no.
not all 3 series even have the same KWs.
they are E90/e92 RWD, E91/E93 , and XI specific.
The reason is for weight.

its really about the springs, your car will not be as low as they are on the 3 series.
i put coupe springs on my convertible, and the rear was SLAMMED!
you may be able to just buy the correct springs from KW.

Yes they will fit.
Spring rates might be slightly off, ask KW.

I was referring to the first personas response where they told you to look at realoem as they thought you meant OEM struts since they only read the title most likely.
They were implying to compare stock part numbers

they do fit. have KWs on my car.

coils to height is whatever you want.

rates are a bit stiffer for the 3 series which isn't a bad thing since they come with good dampeners.
