Lowering Springs

The Steeda MK3 Ford Focus ST Lowering Springs are precision-engineered suspension components designed to enhance the handling and aesthetics of the 2014-2018 Focus ST models. Manufactured in the United States, these springs are constructed from high-tensile strength chrome-silicon spring wire using a CNC winding process. Each spring undergoes a rigorous heat treatment, shot peening, and re-heat treatment cycle before being finished with a durable powder coat, ensuring longevity and resistance to sagging and corrosion over their service life. By lowering the Focus ST by approximately 1 inch in the front and 1.4 inches in the rear, they effectively lower the center of gravity. This contributes to reduced body roll during cornering, less nose dive under braking, and an overall more aggressive stance. The improved spring rates enhance traction, decrease instances of wheel hop, and significantly mitigate the factory understeer characteristic of front-wheel-drive vehicles, especially when pushed to the limit. Steeda's design focuses on a balanced front-to-rear spring rate increase to reduce understeer while maintaining a predictable and manageable handling feel. Key product benefits include reduced body roll, less nose dive, minimized wheel hop, increased traction, significantly reduced understeer, and overall improved handling performance. Steeda backs these lowering springs with a LIFETIME warranty, underscoring their commitment to quality and durability. It is important to note that the actual lowered amount may vary depending on the specific vehicle package and trim options.
