BC Racing DS Series Coilovers are precision-engineered suspension components engineered specifically for the Audi R8 AWD Type 4S (16-24) DN, delivering enhanced handling and adjustability for serious performance enthusiasts. These coilovers feature a 10/9kg.mm spring rate configuration, providing the responsive control needed for both road and track applications. Built with BC Racing's proven reputation for quality and performance, the DS Series offers multiple adjustment options to optimise your R8's suspension geometry and ride characteristics.
The BC Racing DS Coilover system is built with digressive valving, offering the same great benefits of the BR Series and is considered a perfect choice for those looking for track-biased coilovers. The digressive piston design produces a non-linear damping curve — allowing higher low-speed damping to control body roll through cornering, acceleration and braking, while providing reduced high-speed damping to allow the wheel to travel when running kerbs, preventing the impact from transmitting fully into the shell and retaining car balance.
Unlike a conventional linear piston, the DS digressive design increases damping force at low piston velocities — the range associated with body roll, pitch and dive during driven inputs — while reducing damping force at high piston velocities, such as when a wheel travels over a kerb. This keeps the car stable during cornering loads while allowing impacts to be absorbed without upsetting the chassis balance.
