What is the benefit of 2-way adjustable coilovers?

2-way adjustable coilovers allow you to independently adjust both compression and rebound damping. This gives you more control over how the suspension behaves under different conditions, helping to fine-tune handling, body roll, and tire contact for optimal performance.

What do the external reservoirs do?

The external reservoirs connect to the main damper body and house additional oil and gas. They help keep the damping fluid cooler under heavy use, which prevents fade, and they also provide convenient access to the compression and rebound adjustment knobs.

What is the purpose of camber-adjustable top mounts?

Camber-adjustable top mounts allow you to change the angle of the wheel relative to the vertical axis. This adjustment is crucial for optimizing tire contact with the road during cornering, which can significantly improve front-end grip and handling characteristics.

About this part

Product Details

AST is known for building serious performance suspension components, and these 5200 Series coilovers are a prime example. If you're looking to get the most out of your 2012-2019 Peugeot 208 GTI on the track, this kit is designed to help you achieve that goal. They feature a monotube design for consistent damping and an inverted strut layout to handle the high side loads from aggressive cornering and braking.

What really sets these apart is the 2-way adjustability. You can independently adjust both the compression and rebound damping using the external reservoirs. With 12 distinct positions for each, you have a lot of flexibility to dial in the suspension's response. Adjusting compression controls how quickly the suspension moves inward, which can help manage body roll and improve handling. Adjusting rebound controls how quickly it extends back out, allowing you to fine-tune the car's balance and tire contact with the road. This level of control lets you tailor the ride to specific track conditions and your driving style, aiming for optimal grip and a unique driving sensation.

This kit also includes camber-adjustable front top mounts, which give you more options to alter the front-end geometry for improved grip. Solid rear top mounts are also included. Springs come as part of the package, so you have a complete system ready for installation. Remember to consult the manufacturer's installation instructions for specific details on setup and adjustment.
