ST Sport Springs
With over 1,000 applications, ST suspensions' wide range of springs is one of the few lowering springs on the market that, in combination with the standard suspension, improve a vehicle's handling. In addition to an attractive lowering, ST suspensions sport springs enable an increase in cornering speed and dynamic driving.
Great looks for every car
ST suspensions sport springs, manufactured in OEM quality from chrome-silicon steel using a cold winding process, are multi-tempered and have a final epoxy coating. This makes them resistant to a wide variety of weather conditions. Depending on the vehicle model, ST suspensions sport springs can achieve subtle lowerings of, for example, 20 mm at the front and 15 mm on the drive axle of the current BMW M3 (E9x series), an attractive 30 mm on both axles of the Audi A1, or up to 60 mm on the VW Golf I. When ST suspensions sport springs are installed, not only is the body's center of gravity lowered compared to the standard suspension, but the driving dynamics also benefit. In the event of strong steering movements, such as evasive maneuvers and fast cornering, body movements are reduced due to the lower rolling tendency. Furthermore, compression and rebound are reduced, making handling more agile.
The ideal spring rate for every lowering
The spring rates of the ST suspensions sport springs harmonize perfectly with the tuning of the standard dampers. After all, ST suspensions sport springs, in conjunction with the respective vehicle weight, wheel loads and the level of the intended lowering, have a great influence on the compression and rebound behavior of the standard suspension. The ST suspensions sport springs, made of chrome-silicon steel, not only support the vehicle weight, but also guarantee a more direct driving experience thanks to the specially tuned spring rates. Depending on the level of lowering, for example with a reduction in the center of gravity of 20 mm, 30 mm or 40 mm, ST suspensions sport springs have different spring rates that harmonize with the standard dampers. The greater the level of lowering, the higher the spring rate.
Great variety, not just for tuning enthusiasts
ST suspensions sport springs are available not only for current vehicles and new cars such as the Audi A7 Sportback or Mercedes-Benz E-Class and others. Lovers of timeless models such as the BMW E30 or VW Golf I will also find the ideal sport springs in the ST suspensions product range. Even for unusual vehicles, tested ST suspensions sport springs are available. The current range of sport springs includes around 1,000 applications for 30 different car brands, from Alfa Romeo to Volvo.
