ST XTA adjustable coil over suspension for VW Golf 7 GTI AU platform 2013 onwards

Give your Mk7 and Mk7.5 GTI the handling it deserves with the ST XTA coil over system. Built with KW-derived valving and CNC aluminium camber plates, this upgrade delivers crisp steering, flatter cornering and genuine confidence on B-roads, motorway and track days. Ride height and damping are both adjustable, so you can dial in the stance and feel you want for your Volkswagen hot hatch.

What you get

• Ride height tuning front and rear via threaded spring perches for a precise stance and rake
• External damping adjuster on the piston rod for swift rebound changes without removing components
• Machined alloy camber plates with uniball bearings for accurate geometry and front-end grip, with caster optimisation where the application allows
• Durable zinc-coated steel damper bodies with multi-lip seals for long-term corrosion resistance
• High quality spring package with bump rubbers and dust protection included

Lowering range

Front: 25 to 55 mm
Rear: 20 to 45 mm

Why enthusiasts choose this setup

• Customisable ride quality from comfortable daily driving to firm fast-road and track-ready control
• Camber adjustment at the top mounts for improved tyre contact, better traction and even tyre wear
• Makes a great step up from lowering springs or stock dampers while keeping everyday usability

Real-world results

We run this kit on customer cars and feedback has been consistently excellent. Owners report more front-end bite, far better stability on fast A-roads, and a planted feel without harshness. The ability to tweak rebound and camber means you can create a road-friendly setup for daily use, then add support for a track session in minutes.
