The AST Suspension Lowering Springs for the 1996-2000 Volkswagen Passat (3B) are high-performance suspension components designed to improve handling and aesthetics. Crafted from premium high tensile chromium-silicone wire, these springs are engineered for durability and consistent performance. Each spring is cold wound, heat treated to enhance hardness and reduce internal stresses, and then individually shot peened, phosphate treated, and powder coated to ensure longevity beyond the vehicle's lifespan. Featuring progressive rates on most applications, these springs provide a smooth ride while lowering the vehicle's stance for a more aggressive look and improved cornering stability.
