XYZ Racing Tarmac Rally Coilovers — BMW 6 SERIES F13 M6 (Cancellation Kit for Electronic Damping) 2011-2018

The F13 M6 was built around BMW’s electronic Adaptive Drive damping, and that’s exactly the system this kit replaces. Strip out the factory adaptive struts on a 560bhp twin-turbo grand tourer and you’re left with a 1.9-tonne chassis that needs proper mechanical control – which is the job this Tarmac Rally setup was designed for.

This is the sealed-stage tarmac specification, tuned for surfaces that combine fast flowing sections with mid-corner bumps, cambers and broken patches the M6’s standard suspension was never asked to handle. The supplied cancellation kit closes the loop on the EDC error codes so the dash stays clean once the original electronic dampers come off.

What this coilover brings to your 2011-2018 Bmw 6 Series F13 M6

Adaptive Drive gives the F13 M6 its broad bandwidth from the factory, but it also limits how aggressively the chassis can be set up. Switching to a mechanically adjustable Tarmac Rally damper hands ride height, spring preload and damping back to you, and that matters on a car this heavy with this much torque. Body movement on turn-in becomes something you control rather than something the ECU averages out.

Over the kind of broken tarmac that unsettles a stock M6 – mid-corner ridges, expansion joints, patched-up B-road crests – the high-shaft-speed bump control keeps the tyre loaded instead of skipping. You feel the front axle bite earlier under trail braking, and the rear stops squatting and unloading on power delivery out of slow corners. Cancellation kit included means no permanent EDC fault lights and no limp behaviour from the chassis control module.

About the Tarmac Rally coilover

The Tarmac Rally is XYZ’s sealed-stage tarmac rally specification, carrying settings developed through XYZ’s own competitive tarmac rally programme. The damper valving is built to absorb impact from uneven pavement – the sort of sharp vertical hits that ruin a softer track damper – while still suppressing body movement on smoother sections. The brief is traction-first: when a coarse surface tries to throw the tyre off the road, the damper’s job is to keep the contact patch loaded and the chassis settled.

Construction prioritises shaft control under repeated impact rather than outright low-speed stiffness. That gives a different character to a circuit coilover – more compliance over the hit, faster recovery afterwards, and a calmer car when the surface deteriorates. For the F13 M6, that translates into a damper that can cope with the car’s mass and torque without the brittle ride a stiff track setup would give on a road-going GT.

Fitment for the Bmw 6 Series F13 M6 (2011-2018)

This kit fits the F13 generation 6 Series M6 coupe, chassis code BM75-4-C, model years 2011 through 2018. The cancellation kit handles the OE electronic damping system on cars fitted with Adaptive Drive, so no warning lights remain once installation is complete.
