Coilovers
Wide Range of Coilovers from Well-Known Brands
Make Your Car Drive the Way You Want It To
Coilovers are considered high-end products in the field of vehicle tuning. They offer a variety of functions and features for sporty and performance-oriented vehicles. Depending on the design and vehicle model, a coilover allows for individual adjustment of the ride height. This not only provides a sportier look but also leads to better handling in various driving situations.
Many coilovers allow for individually adjustable damping (rebound and compression) to suit personal preferences (sport or comfort). Some selected products even offer adjustments in both high-speed and low-speed ranges. The coilover improves control, comfort, and driving safety by providing better traction and reducing body roll.
The optimal coilover for you depends on your driving style. Depending on your driving behavior and usage, different products with various functions are used. At DTS, you will surely find the perfect coilovers for you.

A coilover suspension and a sports suspension differ mainly in their adaptability and functionality.
A coilover suspension is characterized by its simple adjustment of ground clearance. It consists of struts and springs that allow the height of the vehicle to be adjusted individually depending on the intended use.
This customization option can provide better traction, handling and stability. Coilover suspensions also allow the vehicle's center of gravity to be changed, which can influence cornering behavior. A sports suspension, on the other hand, is usually less customizable than a coilover suspension. It is designed to provide a sportier and firmer ride.
Sport suspensions have shorter and stiffer springs and shock absorbers to improve road holding and steering. This can lead to more direct feedback from the road and make the vehicle more stable when cornering. Sports suspensions can make the suspension harder and bumps in the road more noticeable.

1. How Much Does It Cost to Install Coilovers?
The cost of installing a coilover can vary depending on the vehicle type, manufacturer, labor involved, and workshop. Typically, installation costs for a coilover range between 300 and 800 euros. It is advisable to obtain cost estimates from various workshops in advance to get a more accurate idea of the costs.
2. Do I Need to Have the Coilovers Registered?
In some countries, a modified coilover usually needs to be registered with a testing organisation. Changes to the damping system, such as installing a coilover kit, can affect the vehicle's safety and handling. Therefore, it is necessary to have such modifications inspected and approved by a testing organisation in some countries.
3. What Can Be Adjusted on Coilovers?
A coilover allows the adjustment of the vehicle height by individually adjusting the threads on the strut and springs. This enables the driver to increase or decrease the ground clearance within the tested adjustment range as needed. Depending on the design, the coilover may also enable fine-tuning of the rebound and compression on the front and rear axles. This allows for customization of the driving behavior and road handling.
5. Are There Any Disadvantages to a Coilover?
The wrong adjustment and customization can lead to poor road handling, less comfort, and uneven tire wear. If installed too low, ground clearance can be compromised, which can be problematic on uneven roads. Therefore, installation and precise adjustment should be carried out by a professional workshop.
