Overview

These springs feature aggressive rates of 365 lbs/in front and 360 lbs/in rear to match the OEM valving. They provide a 20mm drop front and rear, with a drop height of 0.75 inches. The goal of these springs is to minimize factory understeer and enhance handling from corner entry to exit while retaining ride comfort for daily driving.
Show original supplier description
The Racecomp Engineering Yellow Lowering Springs offer a refined balance of performance and comfort for the 2015-2021 Subaru STI. Engineered after an in-depth evaluation of the VA suspension, these springs are specifically tuned to complement the aggressive OEM valving found in the 2015 STI. With spring rates of 365 lbs/in for the front and 360 lbs/in for the rear, these springs aim to minimize the understeer characteristic of the factory setup. This aggressive tuning enhances handling performance throughout the entire cornering arc, from entry to exit. The springs also include new rear bumpstops to help retain more bump travel compared to competitor springs. The Yellow springs provide a noticeable drop of 20mm (approximately 0.75 inches) both front and rear. This lowering not only contributes to an aggressive aesthetic but also lowers the vehicle's center of gravity for improved dynamics. Despite the performance enhancements, Racecomp Engineering has focused on retaining sufficient ride comfort for daily driving, making them a versatile option for enthusiasts who want to improve their STI's handling without sacrificing everyday usability. Installation of these springs involves standard procedures for lowering springs and may require specialized tools. Customer reviews indicate that while the ride is slightly more harsh than stock, it is expected and manageable. Some users reported installation taking around 6 hours for a DIYer, with challenges in breaking free top hats and aligning bolt holes. It is recommended to have torque wrenches and appropriate Allen keys readily available.
