BE Bearings for S65

BE Bearings Rod Bearing Set for BMW E90, E92, and E93 M3 is built to address one of the most common reliability concerns on the S65 V8.

The factory S65 rod bearings are known for tight oil clearance, which can lead to early wear over time. BE Bearings are designed with extra clearance to improve oil film protection while still working with the factory 10W-60 oil specification.

These bearings are manufactured by Clevite to BE Bearings specifications and use a tri-metal lead-copper design with Clevite TriArmor coating. The softer lead-copper construction is more forgiving than the factory tin-aluminum bearing material and allows wear to be tracked through oil analysis.

This set is a strong choice for preventative rod bearing service, higher-mileage S65 engines, or performance-driven E9X M3 builds. For best results, pair with quality rod bolts, fresh engine oil, and proper installation clearances.
