Abarth & Fiat 500 suspension: cult status meets controlled performance
The Fiat 500 and Abarth 500 are not built to be ordinary. With their short wheel base and low weight, models with turbocharged 1.4 engine give this compact its unmistakable, lively character. The right Fiat 500 suspension turns that character into real control, offering enough residual comfort. If you're looking for Fiat 500 lowering or improve its balance for sporty driving, ST suspensions has the perfect solution.
Series
The standard suspension of the Fiat 500 focuses on sportiness. The Abarth 500 in particular has very firm suspension. The car hardly sways when driving, and precise steering maneuvers determine the ride. If you enter a curve quickly, you can control your vehicle cleanly. In everyday use, this firm damping in the Fiat 500 and Fiat Abarth 500 can seem too hard. If you want to lower your Fiat 500 or make its handling more balanced, ST suspensions has the right product for you.
ST X
The ST X coilover suspension is the answer to the very stiff standard suspension in the Fiat 500 and Abarth 500 (including C). Thanks to continuously adjustable lowering and a fixed predefined damper setup in the ST X, you get a lowered Fiat 500 with a moderately sporty suspension setup. Perfect for all drivers who want a lowered suspension and sufficient comfort for everyday driving.

What else interests our customers about the Fiat / Abarth 500 suspension
How can I lower my Fiat 500?
You can lower your Fiat 500 or Abarth 500 continuously with our sports springs or coilover suspension. For maximum lowering (up to 60 mm in some cases), we recommend our coilover suspension. For a more subtle lowering, choose our sport springs.
Which coilover suspension is best suited for the Fiat 500?
This depends on your requirements and how you intend to use your car. Our ST springs offer a sporty lowering in a simple way. ST X provides maximum lowering and balanced performance, while ST XTA allows for maximum damping adjustment and stepless lowering.
Is a coilover suspension suitable for everyday use in the Fiat 500?
Yes, as long as you choose and adjust them correctly. High-quality coilover suspensions, such as the ST X and ST XA, provide greater comfort and control in everyday driving than standard suspensions. Even with continuous lowering, sufficient comfort remains, bumps are smoothly absorbed and the vehicle feels more stable. Professional installation, wheel alignment and tuning suitable for everyday use are important.
Are ST coilovers approved for road use?
Yes. All ST suspensions are approved for use on public roads and have the necessary parts certificates. After installation, an inspection in accordance with the certificate specifications is required, for example by TÜV or DEKRA. Provided that the suspension is installed, adjusted and registered correctly, full road approval is retained without restrictions in everyday use or during inspections.
