The AST Lowering Springs are engineered to provide an optimal balance between enhanced vehicle dynamics and driver comfort for the BMW 1 Series 118/120 models produced between 03/2008 and 12/2013. Manufactured using advanced cold-coiling technology on premium Wafios machines, these springs ensure precise and consistent performance. Designed to lower the front by 30 mm and the rear by 20 mm, they effectively reduce the vehicle's center of gravity, contributing to improved handling and stability without compromising the ride quality expected from original equipment springs.
Each set of AST Lowering Springs is tailored specifically for the designated vehicle model, guaranteeing a perfect fit and seamless integration with the existing suspension system. The progressive spring design supports a smooth transition in ride height and stiffness, enhancing cornering capabilities and reducing body roll, which is essential for both everyday driving and spirited performance. The use of high-quality materials and state-of-the-art manufacturing processes ensures durability and long-term reliability.
AST stands behind the quality of their product with a lifetime warranty against breaking, reflecting the confidence in their craftsmanship and the robustness of the springs. This commitment provides customers with assurance and peace of mind, knowing that their investment is protected. Suitable for a wide range of applications, these lowering springs are an excellent choice for those seeking to improve their BMW’s aesthetics and driving dynamics while maintaining comfort standards.
