Audi RS3 8V – Öhlins Road & Track Suspension Installation

Overview

The Audi RS3 8V is a performance weapon from the factory, but this owner wanted more precision, improved ride control, and a suspension setup that could handle aggressive driving while maintaining everyday comfort.

We fitted the Öhlins Road & Track DFV coilover system — known for its Dual Flow Valve technology offering precise damping adjustment across a wide range of conditions. It blends track-ready performance with refinement for daily use.
