XYZ Racing Super Sport Coilovers — BMW I8 4WD (Cancellation Kit for Electronic Damping) 2014-2020

The i8 is the rare hybrid that drives its front axle with an electric motor and its rear with a turbocharged three-cylinder, all wrapped around a carbon-fibre tub, and it left the factory on electronically controlled adaptive dampers. The XYZ Racing Super Sport coilover for the Bmw I8 4WD replaces that fixed OEM strategy with a 36-way adjustable, height-adjustable platform, and ships with the cancellation kit that stops the car’s electronic damping control from logging a fault once the original struts come out.

Super Sport sits in XYZ’s fast-road and weekend-track bracket, so it is tuned to make a road-biased hybrid GT feel sharper without turning it brittle. For 2014-2020 i8 owners who want manual control over ride height and damping that the standard car never offered, this is the sensible entry point.

What this coilover does for your 2014-2020 Bmw I8 4WD

Drop the i8 onto its coilovers and the first thing you get back is control the adaptive system kept to itself. The 36-way damping adjustment lets you run it soft enough to soak up broken B-road surfaces on the commute, then wind compression and rebound up for a circuit session. Ride-height adjustment closes the arch gap the standard i8 carries and lowers the centre of gravity over an already low carbon structure, which tightens turn-in on a chassis that splits drive front to rear. Because the cancellation kit handles the electronic damping signal, none of that comes with a dashboard warning or odd behaviour from the suspension ECU.

About the Super Sport coilover

The Super Sport sits at the daily-usable end of the XYZ Racing range, built around a damper designed to take the harshness out of bumps and rough surfaces rather than punish you for road use. Each corner is height-adjustable, so you set the stance and the geometry instead of accepting one factory figure. The headline is 36-way damping adjustment: a single knob spans 36 settings between supple and firm, so one set of coilovers can cover a Monday commute and a Sunday track day. XYZ rates it as a high-performance damper suited to both weekend racing and everyday driving, and that adjustment range is what makes the claim hold for a car as dual-natured as the i8. On this fitment the kit also carries the electronic-damping cancellation hardware specific to the i8’s adaptive suspension.

Fitment for the Bmw I8 4WD (2014-2020)

This kit is cut for the Bmw I8 4WD, chassis code BM102-C, across the 2014 to 2020 production run. It is the variant specified with the cancellation kit for electronic damping, so it suits i8s that ran the factory adaptive damper system rather than passive struts. Confirm your build year falls inside that window before configuring.
