Riaction TPU Coilovers (Lift) for 2018+ Tesla Model 3 AWD

Product Details

These Riaction TPU lift coilovers fit the 2018+ Tesla Model 3 AWD.

Lift application — these coilovers raise ride height above factory, they do NOT lower the vehicle. The Riaction TPU Coilovers (Lift) for the 2018+ Tesla Model 3 AWD are purpose-built for drivers who want more ground clearance, tire fitment room, or light off-road capability — not a dropped stance. This Tesla Model 3 AWD lift kit uses the same digressive damper technology found in the rest of the TPU platform, with 32 levels of damping and full-length ride-height adjustment above stock.

Each TPU (Lift) set is built-to-order so valving is matched to the raised operating range — ideal for adventure trims, trail use, or clearing larger all-terrain tires while keeping damping compliant on rough surfaces. Riaction coilovers for the 2018+ Tesla Model 3 AWD are fully rebuildable and backed by a 2-year warranty.

TPU vs GT1 — Which Is Right for You?

Both kits share the same 52mm monotube damper body, 32 levels of damping, full-length ride-height adjustment, and spring rates. The difference is in how the damper reacts:

The GT1 uses a linear piston — good low-speed control for body roll, turn-in, and weight transfer, with damping that follows a predictable curve through bumps. That balance makes it the right call for street, canyon, and occasional track days. The TPU runs a digressive piston that sharpens low-speed response with higher initial resistance for flatter cornering, then softens at higher shaft velocities — a blow-off behavior that relieves harshness over potholes, curbs, and expansion joints. The TPU is built for track-focused driving, autocross, and aggressive street use where you want the extra bite under load.

Short version: choose GT1 if you want the best daily-street-track balance — typically in stock and ship-ready. Choose TPU if you want tighter response under load and don't mind the lead time on a built-to-order digressive tune.
