Details

The VW Golf Mk 4 (1J) 2WD is one of the most popular platforms in the tuning world. The Stance+ Street Coilover Kit lets you set it up exactly how you want it with fully adjustable ride height, designed and engineered in the UK exclusively for Stance+.

Designed for the front-wheel-drive variant, this kit is tuned to suit the specific weight distribution and handling characteristics of the 2WD chassis. It covers the full range of petrol and diesel engines from the 1.0 through to the 2.3V5, making it suitable for the vast majority of Mk4 Golfs on British roads.

Stance+ Street dampers are oil-filled and uprated by around 25–30% over factory spec. That means less wallow, less body roll, and a noticeably more composed ride through B-roads and motorway sweepers alike. The chrome silicon springs are powder-coated black, shot-peened for strength and built to last.

Suitable for road use and the occasional track day, the Stance+ Street Coilover Kit strikes the right balance between improved handling and everyday comfort. It is a genuine upgrade over the factory setup in every measurable way. We sell hundreds of these Coilover Suspension kits every year, they are very popular with enthusiasts all over the world. The kit uses your existing factory top mounts and bearings. We would suggest replacing them with new ones for the best results. Fitting should be carried out by a qualified technician, with tracking and alignment reset once installed. Stance+ Street Coilovers are backed by a 2-year warranty as standard.

Kit supplied with a removable sleeve suitable for 50/55mm front strut diameters.
