For over four decades, Ohlins Racing has set the benchmark for suspension technology across both motorsport and road applications. From dominating World Championship circuits to refining the everyday driving experience, Öhlins suspension products deliver unrivalled control, comfort, and engineering excellence.

At Apex Kollectiv, we’re proud to be an authorised Ohlins UK distributor, bringing premium suspension solutions to passionate drivers across the UK. Whether you're upgrading your daily driver or fine-tuning your track weapon, Öhlins coilovers offer a unique blend of road comfort and motorsport heritage.

Founded in Sweden in 1976 by Kenth Öhlin, Ohlins Racing quickly became synonymous with performance and reliability and a driving force in motorsport. What started with a focus on motocross and enduro soon expanded into road racing, car performance, and even mountain bike suspension. Over the decades, Öhlins has amassed more than 300 World Championship titles across disciplines like MotoGP, Formula 1, WRC, and touring cars — a record that few brands in the automotive world can match.

Unlike many aftermarket brands, Ohlins applies its racing technology directly to road applications, ensuring that every coilover, damper, and spring benefits from decades of real-world development. Whether it’s Ohlins TTX dampers on race cars or Road & Track coilovers for BMW and Porsche models, the DNA is the same: precision engineering designed to transform chassis dynamics.

When people think of performance upgrades, they often focus on horsepower or exhausts. But ask any seasoned driver, and they’ll tell you: suspension is the unsung hero of driving enjoyment.

A suspension system is designed to do three critical things:

• Support weight – carrying the mass of the car while staying balanced.
• Absorb impacts – smoothing out bumps, potholes, and uneven roads.
• Maintain grip – keeping tyres in consistent contact with the tarmac for predictable handling.

When you brake hard, weight transfers forward; when you accelerate, it shifts rearward; and when cornering, it loads up the outside tyres. A well-tuned suspension manages all these forces, keeping your car stable and making the driver feel more in control. That balance between comfort and control is what turns an ordinary drive into a memorable one.

Öhlins’ guiding principle is clear: deliver racing technology for everyday driving. They believe that the thrill of the track should be accessible on the road without sacrificing comfort.

What defines Öhlins:

• Innovation: Constant development of new damping technologies, including their famous Dual Flow Valve (DFV).
• Craftsmanship: Precision manufacturing in Sweden with motorsport-grade materials.
• Exclusivity: Trusted by Porsche, BMW, AMG, and other premium marques.
• Balance: A commitment to performance and everyday usability — not one at the expense of the other.

The Road & Track (R&T) series is the clearest expression of Ohlins philosophy. Developed directly from their motorsport research, these coilover kits bring cutting-edge engineering to road cars.

• Dual Flow Valve (DFV): Allows oil to flow smoothly through the damper in both compression and rebound, balancing comfort with razor-sharp response.
• Adjustability: Fine-tune ride height, compression, and rebound to match your driving style — whether you want a comfortable daily or a weekend track toy.
• Durability: Built to withstand high-stress conditions, with corrosion-resistant materials and rebuildable components.

These kits are engineered for track-ready performance while remaining accessible to experienced enthusiasts. With options for platforms like Porsche 911s, BMW M3s, Mazda RX7, Honda S2000 and the humble MINI, this range brings race-proven performance to your street garage. 

For those who want to push further, Öhlins also offers Advanced Trackday coilover systems (abbreviated TTX). These are built for enthusiasts who frequent track days or want maximum adjustability with separate rebound and compression adjustment, allowing for precise chassis setup.

• Separate rebound and compression adjustment for precise fine-tuning.
• Technology transfer from professional motorsport — built on the same principles as WRC and Formula racing suspension.
• Everyday versatility — track-ready, yet still drivable on the road.

Öhlins often says: “Every day should be a track day.” This product line is the embodiment of that philosophy, bridging competitive performance with road practicality. 

Ohlins complements its suspension kits with aluminium top mounts, EDC cancellation kits, and supporting components — ensuring that upgrades integrate seamlessly with your vehicle’s electronic systems.

They also cater to a wide spectrum of cars: from classic rally icons to modern GT and supercar applications, and even extending into mountain biking and snowmobiles. This breadth reflects Öhlins’ long-standing belief that every form of motion deserves precision, control, and enjoyment.

Ohlins has developed some of its most iconic automotive suspension kits for BMW M cars and Porsche 911s — vehicles celebrated for their chassis balance and driver engagement. 

• For E46 M3, E92 M3, and M2/3/4 F8x & G8X series Ohlins coilovers are among the most popular upgrades
• These kits deliver sharper turn-in, improved mid-corner stability, and a controlled ride that elevates both road and track performance.

• From Porsche 964, through 996 & 997 and all the way to the latest 992 platforms, these kits enhance feedback and precision without compromising the car’s everyday usability.
• Popular among drivers seeking a blend of classic chassis feel and modern technology and control.

Other supported models include Honda Civic, Nissan GT-R R35 and host of VAG Hot Hatches ensuring a broad range of options for enthusiasts across the UK.
