Bilstein B6 Front Strut Insert | 1987-1993 BMW 325i Convertible E30

Refresh and tighten up the front suspension on your rear-wheel-drive E30 Convertible with the Bilstein B6 Performance Front Strut Insert.

This strut cartridge is designed for the 1987-1993 BMW 325i Convertible E30 with a 51mm front strut housing and standard-height suspension.

Bilstein's monotube gas-pressure design improves damping control, steering response, and stability while retaining a street-friendly ride with factory-style springs.

Sold individually. Order quantity 2 when replacing both front strut inserts.

Overview

The Bilstein B6 Performance front strut insert is a direct-fit performance replacement for rear-wheel-drive BMW E30 325i Convertible models using the factory 51mm strut housing. It installs inside the vehicle's existing front strut housing.

Compared with worn factory inserts, the B6 helps reduce front-end float, excessive brake dive, and vague steering response. It is a strong choice for a street-driven restoration or OEM+ suspension refresh that retains standard-height springs.

Designed for Standard Ride Height

This B6 insert is intended for standard-height suspension and factory-style springs. If the vehicle uses lowering springs, use the corresponding Bilstein B8 front insert, part number 34-003350.

Important Fitment Note

This insert is not compatible with the AWD E30 325iX. It is also not the correct choice for cars using shortened lowering springs. For a lowered rear-wheel-drive E30 with a 51mm housing, use Bilstein B8 part number 34-003350.

If you are unsure about your suspension configuration, send us your VIN and confirm whether the vehicle has stock or lowering springs before ordering.

Installation Notes
  • Professional installation is recommended.
  • This is a strut insert, not a complete front strut assembly.
  • The insert installs into the existing 51mm front strut housing.
  • Order quantity 2 when replacing both front strut inserts.
  • Inspect the front strut housings for corrosion or damage before installation.
  • Inspect or replace upper mounts, bump stops, dust boots, and spring pads while the suspension is apart.

EZT Recommendation

Replace front strut inserts in pairs. For the most complete E30 suspension refresh, pair these front inserts with Bilstein B6 rear shocks, part number 24-020282, and inspect the surrounding wear components during installation.
