ST Suspension gives you a route into proper coilover performance without the price tag of the highest end kits. We stock close to 500 ST Suspension products at Awesome GTI, covering lowering springs, height adjustable spring systems and full XA and XTA coilover kits for VW, Audi, SEAT and Skoda models.
Three Ways to Lower Your Car
ST's range splits into clear tiers depending on how much adjustment you want. Standard lowering springs give a fixed drop, typically around 30mm, using powder coated high grade steel and backed by a 2 year warranty. A step up, ST's height adjustable spring systems pair with your existing dampers to let you fine tune ride height continuously rather than settling for one fixed figure, similar to the approach used on the Golf 8 2WD, which offers 35 to 50mm at the front and 30 to 45mm at the rear. At the top of the range, ST XA and XTA coilovers add adjustable rebound damping alongside ride height, with the XTA also including adjustable front top mounts for finer geometry control.
ST Suspension and the KW Connection
ST Suspension is part of the KW Group, and it shows in the underlying engineering. What differs is where each brand sits in the range: ST focuses on ride height adjustment with simpler rebound only damping control, while KW's higher tier Variant kits add independently adjustable compression damping too. Neither is a lesser product; ST is built as a more accessible entry point into coilover performance rather than a stripped down version of anything.
Fitment and Fitting
Coverage spans current models like the Audi RS3 8V through to older platforms including the Audi RS4 B7. Our workshop in Manchester can fit any ST Suspension kit and carry out the geometry check that comes with any lowering job.

Is ST Suspension part of the KW Group?
Yes. ST Suspension is manufactured by KW, using the same engineering background, positioned as a more accessible entry point into coilover suspension.
How do ST coilovers compare to KW?
ST focuses on ride height adjustment with rebound only damping control. KW's higher tier kits add independently adjustable compression damping too, at a higher price point.
How much do ST coilovers lower my car?
It varies by model. The Audi RS4 B7 height adjustable system, for example, offers 15 to 40mm at the front and 0 to 25mm at the rear. Check the specific listing for your car.
Are ST Suspension coilovers adjustable?
Yes. ST XA and XTA coilovers offer adjustable ride height and rebound damping, with the XTA also including adjustable front top mounts.
