Touring (Estate) | Rear-Wheel Drive (RWD) / xDrive
Spring Rates: 5.5 kg/mm Front / 10 kg/mm Rear
Coilover Type: RA (True Rear Coilover)
BC Racing BR Series coilovers for the BMW 3 Series E91 Touring (2005–2011) are engineered to deliver an excellent balance between performance, comfort, and ride height adjustability, specifically tuned for the heavier rear load characteristics of the Touring chassis.
This RA-type kit features a true rear coilover configuration, replacing the factory separate rear spring and damper with a unified coilover assembly. This design provides improved rear axle control, more precise ride height adjustment, and better damping consistency compared to the OEM suspension layout.
The factory-selected 5.5 / 10 kg/mm spring rate combination is designed to properly support the E91 Touring’s weight distribution, improving stability under load, reducing body roll, and enhancing confidence during cornering, braking, and acceleration.
As part of BC Racing’s proven BR Series, this suspension is capable of handling fast road driving and track use, while maintaining a high level of ride comfort suitable for daily driving and long journeys without becoming harsh or tiring.

Driving Characteristics
The BR Series significantly improves the E91 Touring’s chassis control by stabilising the rear axle under load and enhancing front-end response. The true rear coilover setup delivers more predictable rear behaviour, especially when the vehicle is loaded or driven aggressively.
This setup is ideal for drivers seeking a lowered stance and sharper handling without sacrificing comfort for everyday use.
