The Function and Form Type 3 e46 coilovers are designed to provide track-inspired performance, enhanced handling, and superior ride comfort for the 1999-2005 BMW 3 Series E46. Whether you’re looking to refine your suspension for precision cornering, achieve a lower stance for a sleek appearance, or improve road feedback for spirited driving, these coilovers offer the perfect balance of adjustability, durability, and performance for both street and track use.
Built as a full-bodied coilover system, the Function and Form Type 3 e46 coilovers feature 24-step one-way adjustable damping, allowing you to fine-tune ride stiffness and responsiveness to match your driving style. The variable damping matched with proper spring rates ensures improved grip, reduced body roll, and superior stability, making your E46 feel more planted and predictable through every turn.
Each coilover is constructed with a high-strength JIS G3445 carbon steel shock body, offering exceptional durability and resistance to flex under high-performance driving conditions. The monotube shock design integrates large fluid valve assemblies and oil chambers, ensuring consistent damping performance and enhanced road feedback for better control and cornering precision. The high-viscosity fluid inside the shocks is engineered for thermal stability, maintaining reliable performance in extreme temperatures and under demanding driving conditions.
For McPherson strut applications, the Function and Form Type 3 e46 coilovers include Koyo Japan radial bearing upper spring perches, eliminating spring binding, reducing noise, and improving steering precision. Additionally, aircraft-grade 6061 aluminum camber plates are included where applicable, allowing precise camber adjustments for improved alignment and front-end grip.
Designed as a direct bolt-on suspension upgrade, these coilovers require no modifications for installation, making them a hassle-free solution for BMW E46 owners looking to improve handling, ride quality, and stance. With precision engineering and high-quality materials, these coilovers are built to provide long-lasting durability and consistent performance in all driving conditions.
By installing Function and Form Type 3 e46 coilovers, you will experience improved cornering stability, sharper steering response, and superior ride control. With 24-step one-way adjustable damping, a monotube shock design, and high-performance materials, these coilovers offer the ideal combination of adjustability, durability, and track-ready handling. Whether you’re tuning your E46 for daily driving, aggressive canyon runs, or competitive racing, this suspension upgrade delivers the confidence and precision needed to take your BMW 3 Series to the next level.
