The AST Lowering Springs are engineered specifically for the BMW 1 Series 118/120 models produced between 2004-08 and 2011, providing a precise fit and reliable performance. Manufactured using advanced cold-coiling techniques on state-of-the-art Wafios machines, these springs ensure durability and consistent quality. Designed to lower the vehicle’s center of gravity, they improve handling dynamics and stability without compromising the ride comfort typically expected from OEM springs.
These lowering springs feature a progressive spring rate, which allows for a smooth transition in suspension stiffness, enhancing both everyday drivability and spirited driving conditions. The front springs lower the vehicle by 50 mm, while the rear springs provide a 35 mm drop, resulting in a balanced stance and improved aerodynamics. This precise lowering improves cornering response and reduces body roll, contributing to a safer and more engaging driving experience.
Constructed from premium-grade materials and subjected to rigorous quality control, the AST Lowering Springs offer long-lasting performance and resilience. They are designed as direct replacements for the original springs, ensuring straightforward installation without the need for additional modifications. Moreover, these springs come with a lifetime warranty against breakage, reflecting the manufacturer’s confidence in their product’s reliability and durability.
