What is the benefit of 3-way adjustable damping?

3-way adjustability allows you to independently tune rebound, low-speed compression, and high-speed compression. This offers precise control over how your suspension reacts to different inputs, helping to reduce body roll, improve responsiveness, and maintain tire contact for better traction on the track.

What is the purpose of the external reservoirs?

The external reservoirs increase the oil capacity of the dampers, which helps to keep the fluid cooler under extreme track conditions. They also make it easier to access and adjust the damping settings without removing the suspension components.

How do the camber-adjustable top mounts affect handling?

The camber-adjustable top mounts allow you to fine-tune your front wheel alignment. Adjusting camber can significantly impact steering feel, cornering grip, and tire wear, enabling you to optimize your car's front-end performance for track use.

About this part

Product Details

If you're pushing your 2012-2018 Ford Focus ST to its limits on the track, the AST 5300 Comp Series coilovers are built to help you find that extra bit of speed. These aren't your average bolt-on parts; they're a serious suspension upgrade designed for dedicated track use, allowing you to fine-tune nearly every aspect of your car's handling. The goal here is to give you the control needed to dial in your suspension for specific tracks and driving styles.

What sets these coilovers apart is the 3-way adjustability. You can independently adjust the rebound, which controls how quickly the shock returns after compression, and both low-speed and high-speed compression, which manage how the suspension compresses under different forces. This means you can dial out body roll during hard cornering, improve responsiveness on turn-in, and ensure your tires stay planted for maximum grip. The external reservoirs give you more fluid capacity and make these adjustments easier to access, even when you're deep into a race weekend. Plus, the inverted strut design is built to handle the significant side loads and braking forces that come with aggressive driving.

This kit also includes camber-adjustable top mounts for the front and solid top mounts for the rear. The adjustable front camber plates allow you to fine-tune your front-end geometry, which can significantly alter steering feel and front grip. With the ability to adjust ride height and spring rates, you have a comprehensive system to customize your Focus ST's suspension for optimal performance on the circuit.
