Real-world benefits

Dial in your VW hot hatch for your driving style. Increase rebound for flatter cornering and rock-solid high-speed stability, or soften it for a more compliant commute. The camber-adjustable top mounts let you add negative camber for improved front-end bite and tyre contact, ideal for spirited road use and track sessions. We run this setup ourselves and customer feedback has been outstanding for ride quality, grip and steering feel.

Fitment and notes

• Vehicle: VW Golf 7R AU hatch, 2013 onwards, MQB platform

Set up your stance and handling

Whether you want a subtle drop for improved aesthetics or a purposeful fast-road alignment, the continuously threaded bodies make ride height changes straightforward. Adjust camber at the top mounts to maximise front-end grip and stability, then tweak rebound to suit road conditions or track layouts.
