Fitting and delivery

The MTS Street Golf 3 Variant Inox replaces the original dampers and springs and fits on the original mounting points.

• The stated lowering applies relative to the standard suspension. If the car has a factory sport suspension, the lowering will be smaller.
• When fitting, check the clearance between tyre or wheel and the strut: at least 5 mm. If it is less, use approved wheel spacers.
• After lowering, have the wheel alignment checked, because camber and toe change as well.

Delivery: 4 to 7 working days while manufacturer stock lasts.

The MTS Street Golf 3 Variant Inox combines stainless steel damper bodies, Eibach springs of 60 and 50 N/mm and up to 80 mm of lowering for the Volkswagen Golf 3 Variant.

Why choose the MTS Street Golf 3 Variant Inox?

With the MTS Street Golf 3 Variant Inox you choose the setup MTS Technik itself recommends as standard: enough lowering for a tight stance, and a character that doesn’t become tiring on the road. If you also drive in winter or the car is parked outside, the Inox version pays for itself: stainless steel doesn’t rust, so the thread of the height adjustment doesn’t seize up. If you mainly drive in summer, the Gold version is a more affordable alternative.

Frequently asked questions

Does this kit also fit a four-wheel-drive (4Motion) version?

No. The MTS Street Golf 3 Variant Inox is not suitable for the four-wheel-drive versions. MTS Technik has separate sets for that.

What is the difference between Gold and Inox?

Gold has steel damper bodies with a yellow zinc coating, Inox has stainless steel damper bodies. Inox is more resistant to road salt and moisture and therefore costs more. Otherwise, the kits are identical.

How long does delivery take?

The MTS Street Golf 3 Variant Inox is delivered within 4 to 7 working days as long as the manufacturer has stock.
