The AST Suspension Lowering Springs for the 1979-1994 Volkswagen Golf Cabrio (MK1/155) are high-performance suspension components designed to reduce ride height by 40mm. Crafted from high tensile chromium-silicone wire, these springs are engineered for durability and consistent performance.

The springs are also phosphate treated and powder coated, ensuring long-lasting corrosion resistance and aesthetic appeal. Featuring progressive rates on most vehicles, these springs provide a balanced combination of improved handling, reduced body roll, and a lowered stance for a sportier look.
Designed specifically for the MK1 Golf Cabrio from 1979 to 1994, these springs are a direct replacement upgrade for the factory suspension. They are suitable for street use, offering enhanced handling and visual appeal without compromising ride comfort. Installation is straightforward, intended as a bolt-on upgrade that maintains compatibility with existing suspension components. The kit includes the set of lowering springs, with no additional components required.
