XYZ Racing Tarmac Rally Coilovers — BMW 3 SERIES F34 4/6 CYL (excl. M-Technik. xDrive & EDC) (Modified Rear Integrated) 2013-2026

The F34 Gran Turismo carries more length and more weight over its rear axle than the F30 saloon it’s built from, and on a rally stage that mass keeps moving after the wheel has already turned in. Compressions, crests and off-camber tarmac hairpins load the rear end hard and then ask it to settle again before the next direction change, which is exactly the brief XYZ Racing wrote the Tarmac Rally coilover for.

This kit is built around sealed-stage tarmac work: repeated big hits, broken road surfaces and the kind of compression loading that a road-biased damper simply wasn’t asked to survive. For the 4/6-cylinder F34 running standard (non-M-Technik, non-xDrive, non-EDC) suspension, it replaces the factory geometry with a setup tuned specifically for stage speeds rather than motorway comfort.

What this coilover brings to your 2013-2026 Bmw 3 Series F34

Install this kit and the biggest change you’ll feel is what happens after a big hit, not just during it. The damper is built to absorb the shock of uneven pavement and heavy compressions without the body continuing to move once the wheel has already found grip again, which keeps the tyre’s contact patch working instead of skipping across the surface. That control shows up as more usable traction out of tarmac hairpins and more stability through fast, rough sections where the F34’s extra length and rear weight would otherwise let the body wallow. Because the tuning comes from XYZ’s own tarmac rally programme rather than a generic fast-road spring rate, the balance is set for stage work first: predictable rotation on turn-in, a rear axle that stays settled under power, and a ride that keeps working lap after lap of gravel-strewn, patched-up B-roads rather than smooth circuit tarmac.

About the Tarmac Rally coilover

The Tarmac Rally is XYZ Racing’s damper for sealed-stage competition, built to soak up the impact of rough and uneven road surfaces without transmitting that shock straight into the chassis. Where a fast-road coilover is tuned to manage a single big compression and move on, this unit is built to absorb repeated large hits, controlling the body’s reaction so the tyre keeps its footprint on the road rather than skipping through the impact. That control is the mechanism behind the extra traction it delivers: a tyre that stays loaded finds grip a bouncing one can’t. The damping settings themselves are drawn directly from XYZ’s own tarmac rally programme rather than adapted from a road or track product, which is why the character leans towards stability and repeatability over outright stiffness. For a car that’s going to see stage after stage of the same broken surfaces, that consistency matters more than a single quick lap time.
