What is the benefit of adjustable camber plates on these coilovers?

The aluminum unibal top mounts include adjustable camber plates. This allows you to fine-tune the angle of your front wheels, which is beneficial for maximizing tire contact during hard cornering and for fitting wider wheels and tires without rubbing.

How do I adjust the ride height and damping on these coilovers?

Ride height is adjusted using the composite spring perches on the strut body. Damping is adjusted via a knob on the top of the damper, offering 16 distinct clicks of rebound adjustment. A detailed setup manual is included to guide you through the process.

Are these coilovers made in Germany?

Yes, ST XTA coilovers are built by hand by experts at KW in Fichtenberg, Germany. Each damper is tested on a shock dyno before being packaged.

About this part

Product Details

If you're looking to dial in the stance and handling of your 1999-2004 Volkswagen Jetta IV, the ST XTA Coilover kit is a serious upgrade. This kit lets you precisely control both the ride height and the damping characteristics, giving you the flexibility to tune your car for spirited driving or a more aggressive look. The included aluminum unibal top mounts also allow for front camber adjustment, which is crucial for optimizing tire contact during hard cornering or when fitting wider wheels and tires.

What sets the ST XTA apart is the attention to detail in its construction and adjustability. The spring perches are made from a durable, friction-optimized polyamide composite with a stainless steel insert. This design prevents corrosion between the strut and perch, ensuring that you can adjust your ride height smoothly for years to come. Each damper is individually tested on a shock dyno at KW in Germany to ensure it meets precise specifications before it's boxed. You get 16 distinct clicks of rebound damping adjustment, allowing you to fine-tune how your car feels on the road, whether you prioritize comfort or outright performance. The galvanized zinc-coated steel struts offer solid corrosion protection, and an integrated dust protection system keeps dirt and water away from the piston rod and seals.

This kit comes with linear race springs, which offer a consistent response and are designed to work seamlessly with the adjustable dampers. The aluminum unibal top mounts not only allow for camber adjustment but also improve steering response and feedback. You'll also receive a detailed manual to help you set up the dampers and understand how to reset them to the factory-recommended settings.
