ST Performance coilovers for Audi RS3 - type ST XTA Plus3

Description

ST XTA plus 3 coilover kit with top mounts and adjustable compression and rebound damping for Audi RS3 (8V). The XTA plus 3 coilover kit gives your car maximum performance for the road and the tools you need for any challenge.

From the factory, the XTA plus 3 coilover kit is equipped with KW dampers that are adjustable in high- and low-speed compression as well as in rebound damping. With 24 clicks of adjustment each for high-speed and low-speed compression and 18 clicks of rebound adjustment, the suspension knows no limits. Whether you bolt in or weld in a roll cage, upgrade to PU or spherical bushings or change the wheel loads, the XTA plus 3 coilover has what it takes to keep the car dialed in. Of course, the XTA plus 3 also includes a parts certificate, race springs and aluminium uniball top mounts.

Easy lowering adjustment

Like all ST coilovers, the lowering is adjusted via a continuous thread on the galvanized strut. The lowering can therefore be changed even after installation by turning the spring plate up or down. Note: the lowering range differs greatly depending on the vehicle type.

KW Engineering, exclusive for ST suspensions

The high-quality ST XTA plus 3 coilover is based on the twin-tube damping principle with low friction and pressure-resistant damper housings. Manufactured directly at KW, a mono block guide and seal package reduce the friction of the damper and protect it against corrosion and dirt. Each galvanized strut is sealed multiple times to ensure maximum longevity in all weather conditions.
