What Are Height-Adjustable Springs, and What Do They Do?

Height-adjustable springs are among the most popular tuning products for lowering vehicles. They are made of high-quality spring steel and are individually developed for each vehicle. Lowering the car with height-adjustable springs lowers the car's center of gravity, leading to improved handling and firmer damping.

With height adjustment at the front and rear axles, you can individually adjust the vehicle height (within the tested adjustment range) to your liking. Thus, you can decide how low your car should sit.

What Are Sports Springs, and What Do They Do?

Sports springs are special springs that lower the vehicle. This makes it look sportier and more dynamic. But it's not just the appearance that changes; the handling also improves with lowering. The car's lower center of gravity makes it more stable on the road and improves traction.

Additionally, sports springs provide firmer damping, resulting in a more direct and dynamic driving experience. Height-adjustable springs are usually installed in combination with the car's standard dampers.

1. How Much Does It Cost to Install Height-Adjustable Springs?

The cost of installing these springs can vary greatly, depending on the workshop and the specific vehicle model. Generally, you should expect costs between 100 and 300 euros. It's important to note that these costs can also include alignment costs. A detailed cost estimate should always be discussed with the workshop performing the work.

2. Do I Need to Register the Height-Adjustable Springs with a Testing Organization? 

This varies from country to country. Changing springs is a significant modification to the vehicle and must be registered with a certified testing organization in some countries. The testing organization checks whether they have been installed correctly. This registration is essential because your vehicle will otherwise not be roadworthy, and you could face insurance issues in the event of a claim.

3. What Are the Benefits of Lowering with Sports or Height-Adjustable Springs?

Lowering with sports springs significantly improves your car's handling and road performance. The lower center of gravity increases cornering stability and reduces body roll, leading to a generally sportier driving experience.

The biggest advantage of height-adjustable springs is their ability to adjust the vehicle's height individually. This allows you to influence not only your car's look but also its handling.

Installing height-adjustable springs in combination with the original coilovers is simpler and more cost-effective than a full sports or suspension setup. Moreover, modern vehicles retain the electronic damping of the original suspension.

4. Are There Any Disadvantages to Lowering with Height-Adjustable Springs? 

There are also some disadvantages to consider when lowering with height-adjustable or sports springs. For example, there can be issues with ground clearance, especially on uneven roads or high curbs.

Die Vor- und Nachteile von tiefergelegten Fahrzeugen 

Eine Tieferlegung verändert nicht nur das äußere Erscheinungsbild eines Fahrzeugs, sondern kann auch eine Reihe von Auswirkungen auf das Fahrverhalten haben. Die Entscheidung, ob ein Fahrzeug tiefergelegt werden sollte oder nicht, erfordert jedoch eine sorgfältige Abwägung der Vor- und Nachteile, die mit dieser Änderung verbunden sind. 

Vorteile eines tiefergelegten Autos

Eine Tieferlegung des Autos bietet mehrere potenzielle Vorteile, die von optischen Verbesserungen bis hin zu verbessertem Fahrverhalten reichen können.

Sportlichere Optik

Ein tiefergelegtes Auto wirkt oft dynamischer und aggressiver. Die verminderte Höhe verleiht dem Fahrzeug eine sportliche und auffälligere Erscheinung, die viele Autofans anspricht.

Besseres Handling

Durch die Reduzierung des Schwerpunkts ist das Auto in Kurven stabiler. Das verringerte Kippmoment ermöglicht ein präziseres Lenkverhalten und verbessert die Straßenlage.

Verbesserte Aerodynamik

Ein tieferes Fahrzeugprofil verbessert die Aerodynamik. Dies kann zu einer erhöhten Effizienz und sogar zu einer leicht verbesserten Kraftstoffeffizienz beitragen. Bei Elektrofahrzeugen kann dies zu mehr Reichweite führen. Dies kann zu einer erhöhten Effizienz und sogar zu einer leicht verbesserten Kraftstoffeffizienz beitragen.

Erhöhte Stabilität

Aufgrund des niedrigeren Schwerpunkts und der reduzierten Seitenneigung ist ein tiefergelegtes Auto auf geraden Straßen und insbesondere bei höheren Geschwindigkeiten stabiler.

Nachteile einer Tieferlegung

Ein tiefergelegtes Auto kann zwar viele Vorteile bieten, es gibt jedoch auch potenzielle Nachteile und Herausforderungen, die beachtet werden sollten:

Einschränkung der Bodenfreiheit

Durch die Tieferlegung hat das Fahrzeug  weniger Bodenfreiheit, was zu Problemen auf unebenen Straßen, Bodenwellen oder bei Hindernissen führen kann

Verringerte Federungskomfort

Ein zu starkes Absenken des Fahrzeugs kann zu einem verringerten Federungskomfort führen, was den Fahrkomfort beeinträchtigen kann.

Schwierigkeiten beim Parken

Einige Einfahrten, Bordsteine oder Parkhäuser könnten aufgrund der geringeren Bodenfreiheit schwerer zugänglich sein.
