Hi Everyone

I'm proud to present the popular CROSS / JIC Coilover Kit for your BMW 5er.

CROSS Suspension Coilover Kits Feature

HIGH STRENGTH INVERTED MONTOTUBE (Unlike KW Who Uses Twin Tube Design)
This unique design features a 40mm piston with a one of a kind bumpstop design in cased inside the damper. The walls of the shock casing is lined with grease so that the absorber body can easily move along inside the shock casing body. There are also two thrust bearings to protect the absorber body. The inverted monotube design also allows for a stronger support for the strut type suspension.

COOL BEND LINEAR SPRING
Linear rate spring manufactured using chrome silicon metal alloy with a cool bend process to prevent sag or loss of spring rate. This allows for a direct feel with the vehicle and driver. In addition, CROSS is one of the only companies that utilizes the linear spring for better handling. Each kit comes with various spring rates that are available for more of a custom set up from strictly street performance to all out race-prepped vehicles.

ADJUSTABLE DAMPENING
Available for all applications with 15 ways adjustability. With this feature, you are able to tune your suspension dampening up to your spec. Adjustability is easy with inverted monotube on the bottom of the damper and monotube dampers on the top. An adjustable knob (included with the kit) makes adjustability easy with solid clicks. Adjustability can be softer for street use and brought up for track use. CROSS Competition Series Coilovers have a broad range of adjustability to suit any type of driver looking to upgrade their high performance Porsche.

ADJUSTABLE LOWER BRACKET
More durable than factory brackets with adjustable ride height ranging from 0.5" to 2.5" drop without sacrificing the suspension travel. No other European performance coilover company offers this feature. The independent height drop feature also prevents the noisey annoyance of hitting the bump stop. This also extends the performance capabilities as you can get full shock travel. Made of either high grade steel or high strength aluminum.

INCLUDES CAMBER PLATES
Unlike KW who asks you to use your stock tops, CROSS coilovers come with camber plates and top mounts designed for the coilover. Camber Plates are normally ~$200+.

WHAT CUSTOMERS ARE SAYING
"Greatest coilovers in the world. Switched out KW's for these and made a world of a difference. Car just feels solid." - ninjlao

"When trying to decide on what coilover to go with, I found myself in a very similar situation as yours. Ultimately, I ended up going with what I wanted the most. Yes, the crosses are more money, but you get what you pay for. They offer good build quality, customer service, ride height independent of damper travel and the fact that they come with camber plates makes them a great bang for the buck IMO." - amazingrando

"Cross hands down. When you buy them you can choose the spring rates best suited for your application. For street you would want a softer rate and maintaining as much travel as you can is what you want street or track. Just my 2 cents" - minimarks

I'm still waiting for them to settle, but you have the ability to slam them if you'd like.

Let me know!
