No compromises: the Audi RS3 8Y coilover suspension delivers both performance and comfort

The Audi RS3 (GY) comes factory-tuned for a firm, sporty ride — just what you'd expect from a high-performance machine out of Ingolstadt. But let’s be honest, many drivers are still looking for a bit more comfort in everyday driving. Some might even say: "Sporty driving or comfort - make up your mind!". We say: "Why not both?" Discover our premium suspension products for your RS3 (8Y).

Production vs. KW

Problems with the series version

The standard suspension of the Audi RS3 8Y is well tuned for sporty everyday suitability and is optionally available with adaptive damper control. Nevertheless, there can be a subjective lack of driving stability at very high speeds. This is where KW comes in, offering a convincing combination of sportiness, comfort, and more precise handling, thanks to its Audi RS3 suspension, even at the limit.

Function & quality from KW

Finally ready for the track and uncompromising performance! With the KW V4 Clubsport for the Audi RS3 8Y, you will experience significantly sharper turn-in behavior and more precise feedback at the limit. A must-have for all those who want to experience their RS3. Thanks to separately adjustable compression and rebound damping, you can adjust the damping to your preferences at any time.

WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS ARE ALSO INTERESTED IN

Is the 8Y RS3 tuneable?

Sure! The Audi RS3 8Y (also called: GY) is a popular car for automotive tuning, especially in the section of improving the driving dynamics. Coilover suspensions are a popular way to give your car an even sportier look, a fiercer driving experience, or to increase the subjective driving safety.

What does '8Y' mean for the Audi?

The designation '8Y' is the internal type designation of the fourth generation of the Audi RS3 model. Another possible term is the identifier 'GY'. The vehicle has been on the market since 2020. Audi 8Y models are therefore successors to the well-known 8V series.

What is the service life of KW coilovers?

KW coilover suspensions - including your Audi RS3 8Y coilover suspension - are made from rust-free, weather-resistant materials in Germany. The product is insensitive to dirt and can withstand the toughest influences. This ensures that the product will last at least the life of the vehicle.

What is the difference between RS3 GY and 8Y?

There is almost no difference between the two designations. In this case, the 'G' merely stands for a model after the facelift, which was introduced in August 2024. This is therefore not a different vehicle model, but a more modern version of the RS3.
