What's the Difference Between Short Springs and Coilovers?

[VanRemington]

Short springs are a part of coilovers. Here are some introductions about short springs and coilovers: 1. Definition: Coilovers refer to shock absorbers with adjustable spring height design. Replacing short springs involves changing the springs wrapped around the shock absorbers to shorter ones, thereby lowering the vehicle's height, reducing ground clearance, and improving the stability of the car body. 2. Function: Springs control many factors related to handling, and changes to springs can result in complex alterations in handling characteristics. For example, increasing stiffness can enhance the suspension's ability to resist roll, reducing body roll during cornering. Lowering the vehicle height can simultaneously lower the center of gravity, reducing weight transfer during cornering and improving stability. Additionally, lowering the vehicle height can also enhance aesthetic appeal.
