How do I adjust the suspension settings?

You can adjust the rebound and both low- and high-speed compression using the controls on the external reservoirs. There are 12 distinct positions for rebound adjustment, allowing for fine-tuning of the suspension's return stroke.

What is the benefit of the inverted strut design?

The inverted strut design places the larger piston rod at the bottom, which helps it handle heavier side loads and braking forces more effectively than a conventional strut. This is important for track driving.

Product Details

With 12 distinct rebound adjustment positions and separate low- and high-speed compression adjustments, the AST 5300 Series coilovers offer serious track tuning for your 2006 Lotus Exige. These MONOTUBE dampers feature external reservoirs for easier access to adjust rebound and compression, allowing you to fine-tune how your suspension returns to full extension and how it compresses under load. This level of control helps reduce body roll during hard cornering and keeps your tires firmly planted for better traction.

The inverted strut design is built to handle the heavy side loads and braking forces common on a race track. You also get the flexibility to adjust spring rates. This kit includes camber-adjustable front top mounts and solid rear top mounts, giving you more control over your front-end geometry to improve grip.
