The Unplugged Performance Dual Rate Lowering Spring offers the perfect balance between comfort and performance for your Tesla. Designed to combine style, comfort, and enhanced handling, these precision-engineered springs lower your vehicle for a sportier stance while maintaining excellent ride quality during daily driving. The dual-rate technology offers a smooth and comfortable ride under normal conditions but stiffens under increased load or aggressive cornering for superior handling and performance. Perfect for enthusiasts, either entry level or hardcore, who want to improve aesthetics, drivability, and performance.
Additionally, lowering your Tesla has been CFD-tested and proven to reduce drag beneath the vehicle which could result in an increase in range.
Dual Rate Lowering Springs are offered in 3 different heights for Tesla Model 3 (Mild, Moderate, Low), and 2 height options for Tesla Model Y (Mild, Moderate)
These springs are offered in 4 different versions for your specific needs:
- Mild (0.5-0.7" drop)
- Moderate (1.0-1.5" drop)
- Low (1.5-2.0" drop)
*Heights may vary based on vehicle production trims and variables
