Cosmo racing coilovers

[JRW21]

Brand new set of cosmo coilovers. These are for 318 1983-1992. SOLD.


Not sure on the brand but they are fixed camber plates: $55 shipped

[Joseph.]

These will only work on 318 and 318is? No other e30 models?

[BenjaminButtton]

They will work on all e30 models, probably just sprung for a 318 - doesn't make much difference.

dumb question but would this be able to work with a 5 lug swap? if so i will scoop these up

[series88]

Are these weld in or drop ins like joms and stuff?

[Joseph.]

Approximately how low will these drop you?

I do not know the answer to this, maybe someone with more knowledge on a 5 lug swap can answer this.

These are drop ins. Per instructions the needed tools are basic tools and a spring compressor.

Approximately how low will these drop you?

0 - 2.5"

If the strut housing is cut and use ix insert, these will go low. I'm not sure if the front collar will fit e36 housing for the 5 lug swap.

If the housing is not cut and set to the lowest, it'll be riding on the bump stop. Its Like jom without the shocks

Thanks for providing the info.

slightly confusing...

the paperwork there says 320/325. sticker says 318 1983-1992.
i say confusing because 83/84 is the 45mm housing vs the later 51mm housing.

maybe OP could measure the inner diameter of the front sleeves?

[JRW21]

Just measured. My caliper is basically worthless but it reads 53mm ID on the front.

I know JOMs can go pretty low in the front. So these can basically go as low as JOMs in the front without the strut housing cut? Would you be able to tuck bottle caps with these and bilsteins?

Every coil over kit in the world for e30's lower the same amount unless you section your housings. They go as low as your shocks bottom out when installed properly with the cut perch.

I had these on my 318i and they dropped it pretty good. stiff but a decent ride
