Volkswagen Golf V 1.6 V MK5/V5 PQ35 BC Racing Coilovers

BC Racing BR Coilovers for the Volkswagen Golf

Improve the handling, ride height and appearance of your Volkswagen Golf with this BC Racing BR coilover suspension kit. Designed for Golf V 1.6 V MK5/V5 PQ35 2005-2009 Strut 49.5mm, the kit provides a wide range of adjustment, allowing the vehicle to be set up for everyday road use, fast-road driving, show use or occasional track driving.

BC Racing develops vehicle-specific suspension systems for a wide selection of performance, prestige and enthusiast cars. Each application is tested and refined to provide a balanced combination of handling, ride quality, adjustability and value. The result is a complete suspension upgrade offering considerably more flexibility than conventional Volkswagen Golf lowering springs.

Adjustable Suspension Setup

Depending on the selected series and vehicle application, BC Racing coilovers can provide adjustable ride height, damping control and a choice of top mount configurations. The suspension can be adjusted around the vehicle, wheel and tyre combination, road conditions and intended use.

BC Racing kits include suspension units for all four wheels of the car. Some applications include replacement top mounts, while others require the original equipment manufacturer mounts to be reused. Please review the selected variation carefully to confirm the configuration supplied for your vehicle.

Installation and Alignment

Installation involves removing the original suspension components, fitting the BC Racing units and setting the initial ride height and damping. Suspension work should be completed using appropriate equipment and correct tightening procedures. Professional installation is recommended whenever there is uncertainty about the fitting process.

A full wheel alignment should be completed after installation and again after the suspension has settled. Available from Paramount Performance, vehicle tuning and performance specialists since 1986.
