HANDLING MEETS STYLE
Sharper cornering with a stance to match. iE Performance Lowering Springs drop and level the ride height for a low, aggressive profile while improving chassis balance and control. The progressive spring rate keeps the chassis flatter through corners for greater grip and a more connected driving feel without sacrificing comfort at pedestrian speeds.
TURN LIKE YOU MEAN IT
Power is only fun if you can use it. Most lowering springs focus on looks but leave you with a soft, bouncy ride. iE engineers developed these springs with carefully tuned rates designed specifically for the Audi S3 to reduce body roll and understeer. The result is sharper turn-in, improved balance, and the immediate confidence to carry more speed through every corner.
ALWAYS THE RIGHT SPRING
Making sure your car handles just as well on grocery runs as it does on the track isn't easy. That's why these springs use a progressive rate. Push them harder, and they get stiffer to keep the chassis planted and stable. Back off, and they relax to maintain a comfortable, controlled ride. The result is a sporty feel without a bone-jarring ride. It's like having two suspensions in one.
DITCH THE RAKE
The factory suspension sits higher in the rear than the front, giving the S3 a noticeable rake. iE springs correct this by lowering the rear slightly more, creating a level and balanced stance. The result is a cleaner look and improved chassis balance when turning hard. When you hit the twisties... you'll thank us.
INSTALL ONCE, ENJOY DAILY
Want to replace a worn-out and rusty suspension each year? We sure don't. iE engineers designed these springs out of high-tensile strength, chrome steel springs with superior silicon coatings to avoid corrosion. Bottom-line: these springs resist fatigue, stress, and harsh conditions, so your suspension takes abuse and keeps performing mile after mile.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much do the iE Performance Lowering Springs lower the Audi S3?
iE Performance Lowering Springs lower the Audi 8Y S3 approximately 1.0 inch in the front and 1.8 inches in the rear, creating a more aggressive stance while eliminating the factory rake.
Will lowering springs make my ride harsh?
iE springs use a progressive spring rate that increases stiffness as cornering loads rise. This allows the suspension to remain more comfortable during normal driving while providing improved stability and flatter cornering when pushing harder.
Do I need upgraded shocks or dampers?
iE lowering springs are designed to work with the factory Audi dampers, including vehicles equipped with magnetic ride suspension. However, upgrading dampers can further improve overall suspension performance.
Are these springs compatible with Audi magnetic ride?
Yes. iE Performance Lowering Springs are compatible with factory magnetic ride suspension systems.
Should I upgrade my sway bars when installing lowering springs?
Lowering springs improve ride height and reduce body roll, but upgrading your sway bars and end links can take handling to the next level. iE Sway Bars increase chassis stability and reduce body roll during aggressive cornering, while adjustable end links ensure proper preload and geometry on a lowered suspension. When paired together, springs and sway bars create a more balanced, responsive suspension setup.
