The AST Suspension Lowering Springs for the 1979-1986 Audi 80 Coupe (81) are high-performance coil springs designed to lower the vehicle's ride height by 60mm front and 40mm rear. Crafted from premium high tensile chromium-silicone wire, these springs are selected for their consistent quality and durability. The manufacturing process involves cold winding, heat treatment to enhance hardness and reduce internal stresses, followed by shot peening, phosphate treatment, and powder coating. These features ensure long-lasting performance and resistance to corrosion, making them suitable for enthusiasts seeking improved handling and a sportier stance. The springs also feature progressive rates on most vehicles, providing a balance of comfort and performance during aggressive driving or daily use.

Designed specifically for 1979-1986 Audi 80 models with 1.6TD or 2.2 engines, these springs are a direct replacement for stock components. They are compatible with vehicles equipped with Electronic Damping Control (EDC), offering a seamless upgrade to enhance handling, reduce body roll, and improve overall stability. Installation is straightforward as they are bolt-on components, requiring no additional modifications. The kit includes the set of lowering springs, ensuring a complete upgrade for street or spirited driving. Ideal for those looking to improve their vehicle’s stance and handling characteristics, these springs deliver a reliable, performance-oriented upgrade tailored to classic Audi models.
