Do you have questions about this product?
📞 Ask an Expert!BC Racing's DS Coilover system is built with digressive valving offering the same great benefits of the BR model and is considered a perfect choice for those looking for track-biased coilovers. The digressive piston design gives a non-linear damping curve which allows higher low-speed damping to control body roll through cornering, acceleration and braking, whilst providing reduced high-speed damping to allow the wheel to travel over kerbs, retaining car balance.
Key features:
- Digressive piston and damping curve
- Satin chrome finished shock body
- 30 clicks of simultaneous rebound and compression adjustment
- Ride height adjustment separate to spring preload
- Camber adjustable top mounts (depending on model)
- Pillowball top mounts
- Bearing mounted upper spring platform
- Dust boot to protect the damper seal
- Tapered bottom mount locking collar
- Custom spring rates available
- All spare parts available with low lead times
- 1 year manufacturer warranty
Configuration options:
- DA — Aluminium camber adjustable pillowball top mounts on the front (where available) and aluminium rear top mounts with rubber centres or no rear top mounts.
- DN — Supplied without front top mounts and with aluminium rear top mounts with rubber centre or no rear top mounts.
Fitment: Volkswagen Golf MK5 FWD/AWD (54.5MM) (Inc GTI/TDI/R32), 2005-2009.
Custom spring rates available on request.
