AST Lowering Springs For BMW 1 116/118/116D 07/2019-, Front 45 , Rear 40

The AST Lowering Springs are engineered to provide a refined balance between enhanced vehicle dynamics and everyday comfort. Manufactured using advanced Wafios coiling machines, these springs undergo a cold-coiling process that ensures consistent quality and durability. Designed specifically for the BMW 1 Series models 116, 118, and 116D from 07/2019 onwards, these springs offer a precise fit and reliable performance.

By lowering the vehicle’s center of gravity—45 mm at the front and 40 mm at the rear—the AST springs improve handling stability and cornering response without significantly compromising ride comfort. This targeted lowering contributes to a sportier stance and enhanced road grip, making it an ideal upgrade for drivers seeking improved driving dynamics while maintaining the refinement expected from OEM components.

Crafted from premium materials and subjected to rigorous quality control, these springs are designed to withstand the demands of daily driving and spirited performance. The progressive spring rate ensures a smooth transition in suspension behavior, optimizing both comfort and control. Additionally, AST provides a lifetime warranty against breaking, underscoring the brand’s commitment to reliability and customer satisfaction.

Notes:

• Not suitable for 4WD (four-wheel drive) vehicles.
• For cars with standard lowering, the indicated lowering values will be reduced by the amount of the standard lowering.
• Approximately 10 mm less lowering for vehicles equipped with M-sport suspension.
