Wisefab BMW e9x lock kit can be fitted on a variety of BMW models. E90, E91, E92, E81, E82, E87, E88 M and nonM. Brackets included to fit M brake caliper. Either M or nonM front coilovers would work with Wisefab E90 knuckle. All the metal components on Wisefab E90 front suspension are from high strenght steel, including sheetmetal components, tubes, tube ends and rod end housings. Rod ends and spherical bearings are used, no rubber bushings.

Here is our recommended alignment parameters: Toe in/out: If Ackermann is 0 or negative then toe is 2mm out. If Ackermann is positive then toe is 0 Camber: -4,5 +/-0,5 Caster: 6 +/-0,5
65 degrees of lock, parallel steering. You could tune your steering geometry either towards positive or negative Ackermann in just a few minutes even at trackside without messing up an alignment. Ackermann adjustment kit included.
Adjustable lock stopper.
One piece lower control arm desing. Lower links are replaced with one arm. Drifting with higher steering angle the stiffness and packaging would become an issue. Therefore lower one piece arm is used.
Higher roll center (RC). On Wisefab knuckle, joints are dropped, which brings the front RC up on lowered car, providing higher roll stiffness and letting to remove the front anti roll bar (sway bar) that is quite difficult to package with that high lock angles.
Very good camber control and minimal bump steer with high steering angles. On drift cars the dynamic camber and bump steer is much more important than static. With our kinematics we have assured that the camber would provide very good front grip and bump steer is minimal at all the range of steering.
Steering jacking control. During drifting, when steering angle is much bigger, jacking is also bigger, even with the same geometry and it could become a problem. We have changed the geometry that it doesn’t cause any handling issues.
Consistent and predictable self-alignment torque. Caster is not the only important parameter to provide sufficient self-alignment torque especially at high lock. It’s the combination of different parameters to maintain consistent trail and self-alignment torque. With our setup the steering wheel turns always to the direction of movement and doesn’t get stuck at full lock.
Original wheelspeed sensor (ABS sensor) can be used.
Kit includes:
Adjustable coilover upper mounts, Formula Drift compliance.
Knuckles with hardware.
Lower control arms.
Assembeled tie rods.
Brake adapters for M model brakes.
45mm coilover adapter sleeve.
Installation guide.
Other components, packaging and clearance.
This kit assumes coilovers, to have enough clearance.
Ride height is designed to be ~80mm from front subframe to ground.
Dependent on rim width and ET, wider fenders or fender flares would be needed.
Inner wheel wells do not need to be modified with tire diameter up to 635mm (215/45R17, 225/45R17, 235/40R17, 225/40R18 etc).
Minimum rim diameter is 17”.
Recommended backspacing is ~135mm (7“ ET45; 8“ ET35; 9“ ET20).
If ET is smaller, then wheels stay more outwards, if ET is bigger, then spacers need to be used.
The kit is designed and manufactured the way that after installation and toe adjustment it’s ready to use right away.

Set your desired rim and tire parameters in our fitment calculator to have a better overview how Wisefab will transform your driftcar. Fender arch height is your indicator on ride height. Check the fitment and learn about missing fender gap before ordering widebody kit. In the custom section you can edit the fender to fender and wheelhub to wheelhub measurments according to your driftcar. Use the max width to check if your car will fit on your trailer. Have fun with this fitment calculator.
"’We started working together with Wisefab back in 2014 when we launched our Falken Tyres Nissan 240sx for European competition. Since then, we have enjoyed working closely with the engineers at Wisefab testing new products before going into production and have had a lot of success winning multiple championship worldwide. Thank you to everyone at Wisefab for believing in us and producing such top-quality products."
“When I first installed a Wisefab lock kit it truly opened the door for some more aggressive driving style. I quickly began to expect nothing less than the massive angle and performance that Wisefab provides and installed a lock kit on all (4) of my Nissan 240sx that I currently drift. Also, after testing what I though was a very competitive rear suspension solution against the latest Wisefab rear kit, I was blown away with the apparent grip gain the rear Wisefab kit yielded. I am so thankful that Wisefab has poured so much effort into creating a bolt on suspension solution that transforms a Nissan 240sx into what I believe is still the most competitive drift chassis in the world."
"I love the Wisefab suspension kits used on my competition and demo vehicles, they provide all the angle and grip we love along with the strength and durability we need to compete with the best!"
"I wouldn't have half the results! Only by running Wisefab in my Toyota 86 it just makes the car handle so good and let's me adjust set up pretty easy which is a massive help going from track to track!"
