AST 5300 Coilovers - BMW G87 M2

The 5300 Series are 3-way adjustable shock absorbers for competition use. The 5300 shock absorbers are adjustable in high and low speed compression as well as rebound.

Technical highlights include:

• 3-Way adjustable 

• Gas-pressurised, Monotube technology for improved handling and performance

• Compatible with OEM top mounts

• Inverted strut design to cope with heavy cornering and braking loads

• Fully ride-height adjustable

PLEASE NOTE - vehicles fitted with BMW Electronic Damper Control (EDC) will require a delete kit to prevent error codes from occurring.

More information

The AST inverted damper system is a race-inspired design that gives the damper far more strength and resistance to the high g-forces generated by fast driving. This design retains the suspension geometry of the car during the cornering, braking and acceleration phases, ensuring consistent cornering performance.

The ride-height adjustment platform allows you to adjust the ride height of your car whilst retaining the maximum stroke of the damper.

AST's Monotube technology improves the damper's performance and efficiency by separating the damper oil and nitrogen gas inside the damper with a floating piston. This floating piston design, combined with the use of high-pressure nitrogen, helps to eliminate cavitation around the piston.

The larger piston and lack of cavitation increases the damper performance and the sensitivity of the dampers felt by the driver. All of this combines to produce more grip, increased control and driver feedback.

Technical information

• High end, track ready suspension but still comfortable on the road.
• High and Low Speed Compression as well as Rebound Adjustment.
• Remote reservoirs allow additional travel, heat dissipation and increased oil/ nitrogen gas capacity.
• 44.5mm diameter shaft struts are inverted and offer exceptional strength, which in turn reduces geometry change under corner and braking manoeuvres.
• Aluminium cylinder, threaded body shocks, factory mounting style.
• New low friction seal on all AST dampers.
• Spherical lower ''eye'' shock mounts.
• Spherical upper shock mount assemblies.
• Synthetic hydraulic fluid..
• Fully service and rebuildable.
• Re-valvable for specific characteristics
