The AST Suspension Lowering Springs for the 1991-1994 Volkswagen Vento (MKIII/1HXO) are high-performance coil springs designed to reduce ride height by 60mm front and 40mm rear. Crafted from high tensile chromium-silicone wire, these springs are engineered for durability and consistent performance. Each spring undergoes a meticulous manufacturing process, including cold winding, heat treatment to enhance hardness, and shot peening to improve fatigue life. The phosphate coating and powder coating finish provide superior corrosion resistance, ensuring longevity even under demanding conditions. These springs offer progressive rates that enhance handling, stability, and cornering response while maintaining ride comfort.

Designed specifically for the MKIII Vento models from 1991 to 1994, these lowering springs are a direct replacement upgrade for the factory suspension. They are suitable for street use, providing improved aesthetics and handling without sacrificing ride quality. Installation involves replacing the original springs with these coil springs, which are compatible with the stock suspension components. The kit includes the set of springs necessary for both front and rear applications, ensuring a straightforward upgrade. Ideal for enthusiasts seeking a lowered stance and enhanced driving dynamics, these springs deliver a reliable, performance-oriented solution for daily driving or spirited street use.

Overview

AST Lowering Springs for the 1991-1994 Volkswagen Vento (MKIII/1HXO) are manufactured from a premium high tensile chromium-silicone wire which is handpicked by AST engineers for its quality and metal consistency.

Each spring is cold wound and then heat treated to increase hardness and reduce internal stresses present after winding. Each spring is then individually shot peened, phosphate treated and then powder coated to outlast even the life of the vehicle.
