XYZ Racing Super Sport Coilovers — BMW 5 SERIES F11 (OE FOR REAR AIR STRUT) (Cancellation Kit for Electronic Damping) 2010-2017

The F11 Touring is the BMW most owners assume they can’t lower properly. Rear air struts and the electronic damping loop have kept this estate on factory ride height for over a decade, and any sensible suspension conversation eventually hits the same wall: what do you do about the back end? The XYZ Racing Super Sport coilover for the BMW 5 Series F11 (BM80-C) answers that question directly, because the kit ships with the cancellation hardware to retire the OE electronic damping system at the same time it retires the rear air struts.

That makes this a full mechanical conversion, not a half-measure. Once it’s on the car, the F11 stops asking the ECU what to do with its dampers and starts behaving like a properly sprung touring chassis – which is what owners running fast-road duty, the occasional B-road blast, and weekend track work have been wanting from this generation for years.

What this coilover does for your 2010-2017 Bmw 5 Series F11

The F11 carries its weight long and rearward, and the standard air-sprung setup masks that by trading body control for cushioning. Swap to the Super Sport and the car finally rotates honestly: pitch under braking drops, the rear axle stops floating mid-corner, and the front end loads cleanly when you turn in. The 36-way damping range is the part owners will use most – softer settings keep the Touring civil on a motorway run with the family in the back, while the firmer end of the range tightens the chassis up enough to chase apexes at a track day without the rear walking around. Ride height is independently adjustable, so you can drop the estate’s stance without dragging the splitter, and the cancellation kit means no electronic damping fault lights on the dash once installation is complete.

About the Super Sport coilover

The Super Sport is XYZ Racing’s road-and-track damper, built around 36-way bump-and-rebound adjustment in a single combined click. The damper valving is specifically tuned to take the edge off broken surfaces and expansion joints, which matters on a UK road network that rarely rewards a stiff coilover. Ride height adjusts at the body of the damper rather than by pre-loading the spring, so spring rate and corner weight stay where you set them when you change stance. The kit is engineered to cover both weekend competition use and daily driving – the same hardware that holds up to a Cadwell Park session is what you commute on Monday morning. For the F11, the package also bundles the cancellation kit needed to retire the factory electronic damping module, so the car runs entirely on the new mechanical adjustment.

Fitment for the Bmw 5 Series F11 (2010-2017)

This kit is built for the F11 Touring chassis (BM80-C) production years 2010 to 2017, specifically the variant fitted with OE rear air struts. The cancellation kit for the electronic damping system is included in this part number, so no separate harness or coding bypass is required to clear the dash.
