Active Autowerke E46 Rear Strut Brace

Active Autowerke suspension components will help you achieve the next level in performance drivability. The new rear strut braces work in tandem with front strut and x-braces to further increase torsional rigidity – and enable more stable, more responsive steering at higher speeds.

If your BMW has the optional rear folding seat backs, the Active Autowerke rear bar with removable center section will help maintain that additional cargo space when needed.

A Strut Brace is designed to tie the two opposing strut towers together as a single solid unit. The purpose of a strut tower bar is to reduce flex that these towers experience during hard cornering. When taking a turn a car’s strut towers normally flex, resulting in bodyflex and losing some traction.

As Strut Tower Bars are designed to keep your strut towers from flexing, they distribute the pressure applied to one strut tower when taking a turn to both towers instead of just one. Find Strut brace for you car here.
