FM V-Maxx coil overs

An exclusive to Flyin` Miata!

You`d be amazed at how many suspension systems we test at Flyin` Miata. Even with a full line of parts, we`re always looking for good options to pass along to our customers. When we first tried the V-Maxx suspension from the Netherlands, we didn`t expect it to be any good due to the low price. To our surprise, it was better than most - but it wasn`t quite right. So we changed the spring rates and bumpstop design until we had an end result that met our expectations, and worked with the manufacturer to bring our version to market.

So what makes them work? One of the problems with a lot of coilover setups is that the spring can go loose under full droop. When that happens, there`s nothing to extend your shock any further so you`ve essentially reached the end of your suspension travel. The secondary spring in the V-Maxx coilovers helps to extend the wheel further and give more useful suspension travel. Both springs work together to give excellent compliance that absorbs small bumps. This means high levels of grip and composure. Once the secondary spring is fully compressed, the main spring takes over.

The secondary springs are 112 lb/in, which gives them enough strength to overcome the damping of the shock and stay active. The primary rates are 391 lb/in in the front and 258 lb/in in the rear, which gives a good handling balance. Other systems will use helper springs as soft as 5 lb/in, which isn`t enough to do anything useful.

Since the spring perch is adjustable, you have full control over ride height and cornerweighting. The shock damping is well-matched to the springs and fixed. The stock upper mounts are retained, and the V-Maxx is compatible with our upper shock mounts. They also have a two-year warranty and are TUV approved.

They`re not quite in the same league as the AFCOs in terms of outright speed, but they do offer excellent value and are a good choice for someone who wants an inexpensive coilover setup. Includes both sets of springs, four shocks, adjusting tools and bumpstops. You will have to use the existing upper mounts from your car.

NB hanno modificato gli spring rates, ma questo significa che il coilover di base ha una valida idraulica
