AST Suspension Lowering Springs

AST Suspension is best known for its premium motorsport dampers, and its lowering springs bring that same engineering focus to a simple, bolt-in upgrade. At Springrates we carry AST lowering springs for a wide range of applications.

AST Lowering Springs: Motorsport Engineering, Simple Install

AST lowering springs are designed to work with your factory dampers, lowering the car for a cleaner stance and tighter handling without the cost or complexity of a full coilover. They're engineered to AST's motorsport standards, with rates chosen to complement the OE damper rather than overwhelm it, so you keep a usable, well-controlled ride.

Springs or Coilovers?

If you want a straightforward drop with no adjustment, AST lowering springs are the right call — they bolt in over your factory dampers and typically lower the car a moderate, well-judged amount. If you want to set your own ride height, add damping adjustment, or your dampers are worn, step up to AST coilovers instead.

FAQs

Are AST lowering springs good?

Yes. AST brings its motorsport engineering to its lowering springs, with rates chosen to complement your factory dampers for a well-controlled ride. They're a quality, simple upgrade for a cleaner stance and tighter handling.

How much do AST lowering springs lower the car?

AST springs give a moderate, well-judged drop that complements the factory dampers. The exact figure is application-specific and listed on each product page.

Can I use AST lowering springs with my factory shocks?

Yes, that's the design. AST springs are engineered to work with OE dampers. If your dampers are worn, replace them at the same time so the springs perform properly and the dampers aren't over-stressed.

Should I get AST springs or AST coilovers?

Choose springs for a simple bolt-in drop with no adjustment. Choose coilovers if you want to set your own ride height, add damping adjustment, or your dampers are already worn.

Do AST lowering springs need an alignment?

Yes. Lowering changes camber and toe, so book an alignment right after installation to protect your tires and keep the car tracking straight.

Will AST springs ride harshly?

No. AST chooses rates that complement the factory dampers, so the ride stays controlled and usable rather than crashy — a benefit of their motorsport engineering approach.
