The AST Lowering Springs for the 1979-1986 Audi 90 (81) are high-performance suspension components designed to reduce ride height and improve handling. Constructed from premium high tensile chromium-silicone wire, these springs are carefully handpicked by AST engineers for their quality and consistency. Each spring undergoes a rigorous manufacturing process including cold winding, heat treatment to enhance hardness and minimize internal stresses, followed by shot peening, phosphate treatment, and powder coating to ensure durability and corrosion resistance. Featuring progressive rates on most vehicles, these springs provide a balanced ride quality with improved stability and cornering performance, making them ideal for enthusiasts seeking a lowered stance and enhanced driving dynamics.

Designed specifically for 1979-1986 Audi 90 models with 1.3, 1.6, or 1.8-liter engines, these springs are a direct replacement for factory components. They are compatible with vehicles equipped with Electronic Damping Control (EDC), offering a seamless upgrade for street and performance driving. The kit includes two springs tailored to achieve a 60mm front and 40mm rear drop, optimizing vehicle stance and handling. Installation is straightforward as bolt-on replacements, suitable for those looking to improve aesthetics and handling without extensive modifications. These springs are perfect for daily drivers, street enthusiasts, and track day participants aiming for a lowered, more aggressive look and enhanced driving response.
