The AST Suspension Lowering Springs for the 1995-1998 Mercedes-Benz S-Class (W140) are high-performance coil springs designed to reduce ride height by 35mm, enhancing handling and aesthetics. Constructed from premium high tensile chromium-silicone wire, these springs are meticulously handpicked by AST engineers for their quality and metal consistency. Each spring undergoes a rigorous manufacturing process, including cold winding, heat treatment to increase hardness and reduce internal stresses, and individual shot peening. The springs are then phosphate treated and powder coated, ensuring durability and resistance to corrosion. Featuring progressive rates on most vehicles, these springs provide a balanced ride quality with improved stability and cornering performance, making them ideal for enthusiasts seeking a combination of lowered stance and reliable performance.
Designed to fit 1995-1998 Mercedes-Benz S-Class models with V8 engines, including the S420 and S500, these springs serve as direct replacements for the factory components. They are suitable for street use and performance driving, offering a lowered stance that enhances vehicle appearance and handling. Installation is straightforward as they are bolt-on components compatible with the original suspension setup. The kit includes the set of lowering springs, with no additional components required. These springs are an excellent upgrade for those looking to improve their vehicle’s handling dynamics and visual appeal without compromising ride comfort or durability.
