COILOVERS DS / BC RACING / MERCEDES BENZ GLA

BC Racing DS coilovers for Mercedes Benz GLA

This BC Racing DS coilover kit is designed to improve the dynamic behaviour of the Mercedes Benz GLA while retaining use suited to sporting road driving and occasional circuit outings. A new product drawing on BC Racing’s motorsport expertise, it offers a complete solution to lower the vehicle, refine road holding and benefit from precise damping adjustment.

Part function

Coilovers replace the original suspension components to better control body movements, weight transfer, body roll in corners, pitch under braking and vehicle stance under acceleration. The DS range uses digressive valve technology providing firm, responsive damping at low movement speeds, while preserving good stability and controlled comfort at higher speeds.

Symptoms or consequences of worn or unsuitable suspension

• Imprecise road holding or a floating sensation at sustained speed.
• Substantial body roll in corners and loss of precision during changes in cornering load.
• Excessive dive under braking or pronounced front-end lift under acceleration.
• Uneven tyre wear due to impaired alignment or suspension behaviour.
• Loss of grip on rough roads or during dynamic driving.

Benefits of replacement

• Clear improvement in driving precision and steering feel.
• Reduced body roll, pitch and unwanted body movements.
• Height adjustment to optimise vehicle stance and styling.
• 30-position firmness adjustment to adapt handling to road, sporting driving or track days.
