Description
Lower your Volkswagen Polo/Derby 3-Door/Coupe 86/86C and sharpen its handling with AST Lowering Springs. AST ASTLS-14-2559 is a direct replacement for the factory springs on the Volkswagen Polo/Derby 0.9-1.3 (not G40) 3-Door/Coupe 86/86C 1976-1994.
Built as a direct replacement for the original springs, AST Lowering Springs reduce the fender gap on your Volkswagen Polo/Derby 3-Door/Coupe 86/86C and lower its center of gravity for flatter, more confident cornering. The progressive design balances a sportier stance with ride comfort close to stock, so the car stays easy to live with every day. AST springs are cold-coiled from premium spring steel on Wafios coiling machines in the Netherlands for consistent, accurate spring rates, and every set is backed by a lifetime warranty against breakage.
