Transform the Appearance and Performance of Your Volkswagen MK8 Golf R with APR Roll-Control Lowering Springs
Elevate the aesthetics and handling of your Volkswagen MK8 Golf R while maintaining comfort and affordability with APR Roll-Control Lowering Springs. Engineered for compatibility with DCC and Non-DCC dampers, these performance-lowering springs provide a seamless plug-and-play upgrade, delivering a lowered center of gravity and heightened spring rates to minimize body roll.
In stark contrast to many lowering springs available today that merely lower your vehicle and result in an uncomfortably stiff ride, APR has taken a unique approach to its design. Rigorous testing on various tracks and road conditions has led to the development of a system that enhances the visual appeal of your MK8 Golf R and ensures a comfortable driving experience, free from constant crashes or damper bottoming. Through precise ride height configuration, APR achieves significantly increased spring rates for improved handling, all while preserving a smooth, non-harsh, and comfortable ride. Your MK8 Golf R will feel firmly planted on the road with minimal impact on comfort, making it a system you'll fall in love with from the moment you take the wheel.
These springs result from in-house design and are proudly manufactured in the USA using premium high-tensile chrome silicon steel, guaranteeing exceptional resistance against sagging and long-term durability. Each spring is meticulously powder-coated in APR's signature red color, providing added protection against the elements. Both front and rear springs are dual-rate, operating as single-rate linear springs under standard loaded driving conditions. Please note that center of wheel to fender (CF) measurements were meticulously recorded on APR's in-house US Spec 2022 MK8 Golf R (DCC) test vehicles and may exhibit slight variations from vehicle to vehicle. While this system was specifically tailored for the MK8 Golf R, it is also compatible with other similar platform vehicles.
