The AST Lowering Springs for the Volkswagen Vento MKIII (1994-1997) are high-performance suspension components designed to improve handling and stance. Crafted from premium high tensile chromium-silicone wire, these springs are handpicked by AST engineers for their quality and metal consistency. Each spring undergoes a meticulous manufacturing process, including cold winding, heat treatment to enhance hardness and reduce internal stresses, and individual shot peening. The springs are phosphate treated and powder coated to ensure durability and longevity, surpassing the lifespan of the vehicle. Featuring progressive rates on most models, these springs provide a balanced ride with improved cornering and reduced body roll, making them ideal for enthusiasts seeking enhanced performance and aesthetics.

Designed specifically for the 1994-1997 Volkswagen Vento MKIII/1HXO, these lowering springs are a direct replacement for the factory components. They lower the vehicle by approximately 40mm at the front and rear, offering a more aggressive stance and improved handling characteristics. Suitable for street and performance driving, they are intended for use on vehicles with compatible suspension setups. Installation is straightforward as bolt-on replacements, requiring no additional modifications. The kit includes the set of springs, ensuring a complete upgrade. These springs are perfect for drivers looking to enhance their Vento’s driving dynamics and visual appeal without compromising daily comfort.
