Bilstein B14 pictures

BennyNielsen · 06-19-2020, 02:56 AM

Anyone installed the new Bilstein B14 coilovers?? I have ordered them but would like to see pictures off how they lower the car.

This is mine 320d

BennyNielsen · 07-06-2020, 06:20 AM

I got my coilovers. I am planning on installing them later this week. I will upload pictures when done :-)

BennyNielsen · 07-10-2020, 12:04 PM

Coilovers are now installed. One of the front pinch bolt snapped so install took alot longer than expected. Front is all the way down. Rear can go approx 3 cm lower.

Still looks a little high in the front.

Looking forward to an update to see how much the front settles!

Currently in italy. Thats about 1900km from Denmark. F..... bad roads in italy! Not suited for a lowered E91 🤦🏻 Think it will have setteled when we get back to Denmark. Will post an Update then 👍🏻😊

KnighTT · 09-16-2020, 08:19 AM

Update? I would love to see what these look like settled.

AlexKoast · 10-22-2020, 12:09 AM

Looking for updates too!

luisfmart · 11-05-2020, 01:40 PM

Silly question, when installing did you install the front with the yellow bump stops that came on them or did you remove them?

My front is adjusted all the way down and it’s still higher than yours.

BennyNielsen · 11-07-2020, 06:57 AM

Sorry guys. Here is an update. I dont think it has settled much if any. I have not removed any of the parts that came with the kit.

Overall i am pretty happy with the coils. Not too stiff og uncomfortable.

Installed M3 mirror caps. I think they look nice 😎

And now ready for winther 🙈

Yotaismygame · 11-25-2020, 02:50 PM

Anyone else? Curious how low these will go.

ludoN54 · 12-05-2020, 12:26 PM

i installed B14 on my E93 but the rear is way too low on the highest setting...trying to figure out why

Are you all the way down in front?

Cyril Sneer · 01-16-2021, 10:11 AM

Did you guys get these heights sorted out?

BennyNielsen · 01-29-2021, 06:19 AM

Not me.. would like to hear from the others :-)

Nope just real low

Cyril Sneer · 01-30-2021, 12:55 PM

Anybody yet contacting Bilstein? Gotta be something misplaced in the assembly? Or something else that the company could help sort out.

Doesn't seem to be the usual experience with B14s from my research.

I want to pull the trigger on these coilovers but this height issue concerns me.

blu_E92 · 02-21-2024, 09:43 PM

Anyone have an update on this? Want to buy a set of B14s, but I don't want to lower the rear much if at all from M Sport

cosmosschwarz · 03-15-2024, 10:27 AM

installed a few weeks ago on my E91 325xi. No issues. Heights currently set about half-way up in the front, and nearly all the way up in the rear. Tough to tell with the 16" wheels with snows now, but looks to be plenty of adjustability either way, not too high or too low.
