What is the benefit of a progressive spring design?

A progressive spring design allows the spring rate to change as it compresses. This means it can offer a more comfortable ride during normal driving, but stiffen up during hard cornering or braking for improved stability and performance.

Do these springs come with new bump stops or shock absorbers?

This product includes only the AST lowering springs. It is recommended to inspect your vehicle's shock absorbers and bump stops during installation, as they may need to be replaced if worn.

What is covered by the lifetime warranty against breaking?

The lifetime warranty covers the springs against breaking under normal use. It is important to refer to the manufacturer's warranty documentation for specific terms and conditions.

About this part

Product Details

These AST lowering springs are cold-coiled on Wafios coiling machines, a detail that speaks to their well-built nature. They are designed to replace your Audi A3's factory springs, specifically for models from April 2008 to November 2013. By lowering your vehicle's center of gravity by 30mm in the front and 25mm in the rear, these springs offer a noticeable improvement in handling and a sportier stance.

The progressive design of these springs is key to their performance. It allows for a significant drop in ride height, which can enhance cornering stability and reduce body roll, while still maintaining a comfortable ride similar to your original equipment. This balance means you get the benefits of a lower center of gravity without the harshness often associated with aggressive suspension modifications. They are developed specifically for each vehicle application, ensuring a proper fit and function.

Because these are direct replacements for your OEM springs, installation is straightforward, though it's always recommended to consult your vehicle's service manual or a professional mechanic. AST backs these springs with a lifetime warranty against breaking, giving you confidence in their durability for years to come.
