The AST Suspension Lowering Springs for the 1979-1994 Volkswagen Golf Cabrio (MK1/155) are high-performance coil springs designed to lower the vehicle's ride height by 60mm front and 40mm rear. Constructed from high tensile chromium-silicone wire, these springs are carefully handpicked by AST engineers for their quality and consistency. The manufacturing process involves cold winding, heat treatment to enhance hardness and reduce internal stresses, followed by shot peening, phosphate treatment, and powder coating to ensure durability and longevity. These springs provide a progressive rate, offering improved handling, reduced body roll, and a sportier stance while maintaining ride comfort and stability.
Designed specifically for the MK1 Volkswagen Golf Cabrio from 1979 to 1994, these lowering springs are a direct upgrade for enhanced performance and aesthetics. They are suitable for street use and spirited driving, providing a lowered stance without compromising ride quality. Installation is straightforward as they are bolt-on replacements for the factory springs. The kit includes the springs themselves, with no additional components required. These springs are ideal for enthusiasts seeking improved handling, a more aggressive look, and a lowered center of gravity for better cornering and overall driving dynamics.
