H&R suspensions are a reference both in the world of high-end tuning and in the world of competition, there are many users around the world who enjoy the performance of their H&R suspensions and every day they are more users satisfied with their excellent performance.
Improve the performance of your car by mounting this fantastic suspension kit.They reduce the height of the carrossery and provide a plus of aesthetics and stability by lowering the center of gravity
H&R it is a german manufacturer that is characterized by the high quality of its products.There is no competition where H&R not this present. H&R develop, test and produce for the best preparers worldwide.
A constant flow of information with the preparers and competition teams generates products entirely tailored to the specifications required by each of them.
All this contributes to the possibility that H&R be one of the most important “Partners” for the automotive industry providing and continuously developing sports components and accessories as original equipment for special series
Indicated use
The H&R Cup kit is an excellent solution for all those users who want to increase chassis performance and improve chassis behavior and dynamics without having to give up the comfort and comfort of walking for daily use.
Amortisers are gas-to-pressure with bitubo architecture and with a special anti-corrosion treatment to endure the most adverse weather inclinations.
Maximum quality and performance
The pressure-pressure nitrogen gas chamber avoids the cavitation phenomenon and avoids fatigue under high pressure and temperature circumstances.
The materials used in the axes, valves, cylinders, etc.The.they are high fatigue-resistant hard steel alloys that provide the amortizer with a very long lifetime, in many cases it is not necessary to replace the car amortizers due to the excellent duration performance they have.
High Quality Hydraulic Oil
The work of the amortisator is to absorb the irregularities of the firm and dissipate the energy accumulated in the mole through the fluid in the form of heat, this makes it warm to a high temperature and that bulbs appear in conventional amortisators that use cheap low-quality oil.
It is very important that the oil used always has an adequate viscosity at a wide range of temperatures.High temperatures degrade the hydraulic fluid and make it lose its properties and the amortisator loses its effectiveness.For this reason, it is very important for Bilstein to use high-quality hydraulics, to ensure high performance under extreme efforts and to maximize the appearance of fatigue.
Advantages of a H&R Cup Kit
There are numerous advantages that are gained by mounting a sport kit H&R Cup kit, among others by example:
- They cut off the carrossery giving a more sports and attractive look
- Low Gravity Center
- Greater stability by curves
- More safety and better chassis dynamics
- Excellent road behavior, firm but gentle, constant contact with the asphalt
- Better and greater adherence to asphalt
- Better and greater traction and asphalt power transmission
- Less traction losses and reduction or elimination
- High quality materials made in Germany
- Long duration
Advice for Installation
Although for the assembly of these suspensions it is not necessary to have advanced knowledge of mechanics, it is recommended to perform the assembly of the suspensions in a specialized technical service, but if you choose to assembly it yourself remember that a bad assembly can invalidate the guarantee of the suspensions, as well as a misuse, accidents, strikes, etc.
Remember that it is essential to review the geometry of the axes and the alignment once the suspensions have changed, since they may have varied the geometry quotas sensitively and this translates into instability and erratic behaviors in the car, and giving a false perception that the suspensions are not going well, it is also very important to review the pressure of the tires, an incorrect pressure can also negatively influence the behavior of the car.
F.A.Q. (Frequently Asked Questions)
Many are the queries and doubts of indecised users come to us daily to our mailboards, answering these questions in a spoken dialogue is easy, but for sellers it is inviable to be answering continuously in writing and individually to a large number of questions, many of them very repetitive and so frequent.

1 – Is it a good H&R brand?
Without a doubt, H&R is a very experienced manufacturer that has been established in the automotive market for many years and many of the car brands have trusted H&R, not only as the first-team supplier in factories, but also being present in the high competition with its German partners, Mercedes, Porsche, BMW, Audi, VW etc
2 - Will I have problems with ITV if something changes in the suspension?
Regulation of ITV. What is reform and what is not
ITV stations are mainly fixed on height modification.
In the case of suspension, the replacement or incorporation of the following elements the reform is not considered important:
- Amortisers: Amortisers change does not imply any modification of the technical characteristics
- Strength Bar between torrents: The assembly of a torrents bar does not imply any modification of the technical characteristics
- Stabilizing bars: The assembly of thicker stabilizing bars does not imply any modification of the technical characteristics
The reform is considered important:
- The accused reduction of the car height (more than 4/5 cm) is out of tolerance and is considered a reform of importance.
- Reforced moulds that rise the height very notably (in the whole ground 4×4)
- Roosevelt suspension mounting: Although the carrossery fits the height measure that comes out in the technical file, the “suspension system modification” reform is already carried out, so although it is placed at the original height, we will probably not be able to deceive the inspector.
I’m going to pass or I’ll be buried at ITV if I change the height of my car by mounting mole?
Many users always ask us this question.ITV stations are mainly fixed on the remarkable height modification.
Each ITV station is an universe and the answer to this question will never be answered by the seller because it does not depend on him but on the criterion that the line inspector has to review the car.
90% of ITV stations consider "tolerable" a height reduction of up to a maximum of 30 mm with regard to the height shown in the car's technical sheet and even up to 40 mm, from there, there are H&R kits that reduce the height by -45,50 or 60 mm and that is already out of tolerance, very likely it will have to do the technical study to be able to homologate and legalize that height reduction.
Down the height beyond -35/40 mm will increase the risk of unfavourable inspections, so BBSport recommends mounting the Cup kit that reduces between 30 and 30 mm 40 by mm.
If I'm buried at ITV, what do I do?
If we tumble the car in the ITV for height reduction, it is not necessary to remove what we have mounted and put the old, they will simply mark us as a disadvantaged inspection for an administrative, non-technical defect.
In the worst of the cases, the only thing we will have to do is to legalize the assembly of that accessory, and in the case of the mole, it will be necessary to perform a technical study signed by a college engineer.There are many homologating engineers that can be found on the internet at various rates.
BBSport can process this service for a reasonable market price, consult our rates.
Are these suspensions hard or soft?
Hardness and comfort are personal criteria, the perception of hardness and comfort is not the same for all people, what for one person can be soft for another person can resul hard and vice versa.
In general, the The H&R Cup Kit they combine comfort and stability in a very achieved way, adapting to the various circumstances of driving.They are one of the most suitable solutions for road, highway and mountain streams (not recommended for circuit)
When should the amortisers be changed?
The amortisator is a consumable, such as tires, brakes, oil, filters... but people don’t usually see it like that.An amortisator is a consumable element that has a determined duration and when it reaches its end of life it is necessary to replace it.
They must review every 20,000 km or once a year
My new suspensions lose oil even already in the box
Some users are alarmed when when dispacking the boxes see oil spots on the amortisator or on the embassy, in the Bilstein amortisators it’s something normal.
That doesn’t mean they lose oil, it’s just a lubricant that is put in the factory to keep the vessels and retentions self-olubricated and not reset, these spots are simply a surplus of lubricant.
Do I have to change the upper coples?
When mounting the new amortisers it is very recommended to review the state of the top amortisers of torrents or also called coples, in case of doubt to replace them with other new, they are also consumable and have a limited life.
Always mount original OEM coples to preserve the comfort of walking, there are users who have the mania of wanting to mount rigid coples, if it’s not a car for races or purely sports driving this is an error, the chassis will make more noise, it will become more uncomfortable and the torrents will suffer more.
Can H&R amortisers be repaired?
The H&R factory does not provide this service for 2 logical reasons of weight
1 - A amortisator consists of several pieces, it makes no sense to replace one piece when all the others are also spent, a repaid amortisator will always remain a old amortisator with the risk of stopping again in a short time
The cost of repairing an amortisator is usually the same or even higher than the cost of a new amortisator.
There are some independent companies that are dedicated to repairing amortisers, H&R does not recommend repairing old and wasted amortisers.
10 - The workshop costs me expensive, can I mount the suspension myself to save me money?
There are users who have knowledge of mechanics, the site and the appropriate tools to perform the replacement without too much difficulty.
If you don’t have these three things, we recommend that you best take the car to a workshop to execute the installation
11 - If I have to homologate at the end, what happens if I get them?
Please keep in mind that if the assembly assembly assembly assembly assembly assembly assembly assembly assembly assembly assembly assembly assembly assembly assembly assembly assembly assembly assembly assembly assembly assembly assembly assembly assembly assembly assembly assembly assembly assembly assembly assembly assembly assembly assembly assembly assembly assembly assembly assembly assembly assembly.You will surely be charged for reviewing the assembly and issuing the certificate, unless it is the workshop of a friend.
12 - When changing the suspensions, do we need to align again?
Yes, it is imperative to revert the direction alignment and check that geometry quotas have not varied.If this is not done the car could carry an incorrect geometry and be unstable and insecure.
