The AST 50mm/40mm Lowering Springs for the Audi 80 (1986-1991) 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 strength and metal consistency. Each spring undergoes a precise manufacturing process, including cold winding, heat treatment to enhance hardness and reduce internal stresses, and individual shot peening. The phosphate treatment and powder coating ensure durability and corrosion resistance, allowing these springs to outlast the vehicle itself. Featuring progressive rates on most applications, they provide a balanced ride quality with improved stability and cornering performance.
These lowering springs are specifically engineered for the 1986-1991 Audi 80 models, offering a 50mm drop at the front and 40mm at the rear. They are compatible with vehicles equipped with Electronic Damping Control (EDC), serving as a direct replacement for stock springs to lower the ride height and enhance sporty handling. Designed for street and performance use, these springs are ideal for enthusiasts seeking a combination of improved stance and driving dynamics. Installation involves replacing the original springs, and the kit includes all necessary components for a straightforward upgrade, ensuring a secure fit and long-lasting performance.
