What is the benefit of 3-way adjustability?

3-way adjustability lets you control rebound, low-speed compression, and high-speed compression independently. This allows for very precise tuning of your suspension's response to different track conditions and driving inputs.

What is an inverted strut design?

An inverted strut design places the larger diameter piston rod at the bottom and the smaller diameter cylinder at the top. This setup is stiffer and handles side loads and braking forces better than a conventional strut.

Do these coilovers come with top mounts?

Yes, this kit includes camber-adjustable front top mounts and solid rear top mounts where applicable. The front mounts allow you to adjust wheel alignment for better grip.

Product Details

Already running a track setup? The AST 5300 Series coilovers are the next piece. These are 3-way adjustable motorsport coilovers for the 2010-2014 Volkswagen Golf Mk5. They let you fine-tune rebound, low-speed compression, and high-speed compression separately, giving you control over how your car handles on the track.

The MONOTUBE design and inverted strut help handle hard cornering and braking forces. Each adjustment position gives you distinct feedback, so you know exactly how the suspension is responding. This kit includes external reservoirs for the dampers and, where applicable, camber-adjustable front top mounts and solid rear top mounts. Adjusting camber lets you dial in front-end grip for better cornering.
