The AST 30mm Front and Rear Lowering Springs for the Audi A3 8V (2012-2018) are high-performance suspension components designed to improve handling and aesthetics. Crafted from premium high tensile chromium-silicone wire, these springs are selected for their durability and consistent metal properties. Each spring undergoes a meticulous manufacturing process, including cold winding, heat treatment to enhance hardness and reduce internal stresses, and shot peening for fatigue resistance. The springs are phosphate treated and powder coated, ensuring long-lasting corrosion resistance and a clean appearance. Featuring progressive rates on most vehicles, these springs provide a balanced ride quality, combining lowered stance with improved stability and cornering performance.

Designed specifically for the 2012-2018 Audi A3 8V models, these springs are compatible with vehicles equipped with Electronic Damping Control (EDC). They serve as a direct replacement for stock springs, offering a 30mm drop to enhance the vehicle's stance and handling characteristics. Installation is straightforward for those familiar with suspension upgrades, and the kit includes front and rear springs. Ideal for street enthusiasts seeking a lowered look with improved driving dynamics, these springs are engineered to withstand daily driving conditions while maintaining ride comfort and durability over time.
