The ST XTA coilover kit for the 2009-2014 VW Golf VI, GTI and Rabbit delivers ride-height and 16-click rebound damping adjustment, with aluminum unibal camber-adjustable top mounts to dial in front wheel fitment and corner grip. Built by hand at KW in Fichtenberg, Germany on galvanized zinc-coated steel struts, it runs a linear race spring system and a friction-optimized polyamide composite spring perch with a stainless-steel insert for corrosion-free, long-lasting height adjustability. Every damper is dyno-tested and shipped at ST's factory-recommended setting, with a setup manual so you can reset it any time.
