XYZ Racing Tarmac Rally Coilovers — BMW 6 SERIES F06 4WD 2011-2018

The F06 6 Series Gran Coupe is not a car you’d expect to see anywhere near a stage. It’s a long, four-door xDrive GT with a kerb weight that pushes past two tonnes, and stock suspension tuned for motorway comfort rather than compressions taken flat at speed. Put that mass and that wheelbase over broken tarmac and the standard dampers run out of control long before the driver runs out of road.

XYZ Racing’s Tarmac Rally coilover is built for exactly that scenario: sealed-stage tarmac work where the surface throws up crests, ruts and mid-corner bumps in quick succession, and the car has to stay planted through all of them. For an F06 built for stage use rather than showroom comfort, that’s the brief this kit is designed around.

What this coilover does for your 2011-2018 Bmw 6 Series F06 4WD

On broken tarmac, the biggest threat to a heavy xDrive car like the F06 is the body continuing to move after the wheel has already dealt with the bump. This kit is tuned to catch that compression quickly, so the chassis doesn’t carry on pitching into the next crest while all four wheels are trying to find grip on the way out of a corner. The result is a car that settles rather than wallows over repeated hits, keeping the tyres loaded and in contact with the surface instead of skipping across it. On the 6 Series’ nose-heavy xDrive platform, that translates into a front end that holds its line under trail-braking into a stage corner instead of ploughing wide, with the rear staying settled enough to put the four-wheel-drive traction down cleanly on the exit.

About the Tarmac Rally coilover

The Tarmac Rally is XYZ Racing’s damper for exactly the surface its name describes: broken, undulating tarmac stages rather than a smooth circuit or a gravel event. Its valving is set up to absorb the shock of an uneven road surface and soak up sharper hits, such as a compression taken at speed, without the body kicking back and unsettling the car mid-corner. That control is aimed squarely at keeping the tyre loaded through the impact, since a wheel that’s been thrown off the road surface can’t generate grip. The settings built into this kit come directly from XYZ Racing’s own tarmac rally programme, carried over from stage-car development rather than derived from road-car assumptions.
