Stance starts here. The Stance+ Lowering Spring Kit gives your VW Beetle (9C/1Y/1C) Hatchback and Cabriolet models a clean 45mm drop, fills the wheel arches properly, and tightens the handling, all without the cost or complexity of a coilover swap. The simplest way to get the perfect stance.
The springs are progressively wound, which is the key to getting genuine ride quality out of a shorter, stiffer setup. The varying coil spacing gives a softer initial rate for everyday comfort and a firmer rate as the suspension loads up, so your VW Beetle (9C/1Y/1C) Hatchback and Cabriolet models) stays composed through corners without punishing you over rough surfaces.
With springs uprated 25-30% over factory specification, the VW Beetle (9C/1Y/1C) feels tighter and more connected straight away. Cornering flatter, less wallow over crests and dips, more confident steering response. The chrome silicon steel construction is shot-peened for fatigue resistance, and the powder-coat finish keeps things looking right through years of road use.
This kit is engineered specifically for the Petrol-engined variant of the VW Beetle (9C/1Y/1C) and is suitable for the following engine sizes; 1.4, 1.6, 1.8T, 2.0. Petrol and diesel models often have different front-end weights, which means a kit tuned for one won't always give the correct ride height on the other. Always check your engine type before ordering.
For drivers who want the look and the handling improvement without going the full coilover route, the Stance+ Lowering Spring Kit hits the sweet spot. 45mm fixed lowering, progressive coil winding, and a 25-30% increase in spring rate, all working with your factory fitted dampers.
Springs fit directly in place of your factory items, working with your existing dampers. Have the kit fitted by a qualified mechanic and get the geometry reset on a laser alignment machine afterwards. Backed by a 1-year Stance+ warranty.
