S3 Sportback coilover query

[ElzLewis]

hello,
I am looking to purchase some coilovers for my s3
And after extensive searching I was set on ST X Coilovers made by I believe KW
However they only seem to drop between 10-40mm and I plan on running 19” wheels with a 225/35 tyre so unsure if 40mm is enough of a drop or I need to look elsewhere ?
Anyone running 19’s an Coilovers could give me some help that would be great
Thanks Elliot

ST-X Coilovers before and after.

I’ve actually raised a little all-round.

Have you got any adjustment left in that bottom picture ? Looks fairly good to me I measured 40mm drop and it didn’t seem a lot at all but yours looks good
Thanks!

It’s just standard suspension wise and want some aftermarket 19’s so lowering is a must really

Any update on this, coilovers is next on my list and I’ve seen so many different options... did you get any in the end? If so what did you get?

Car looks great mate, is it a coilover kit or new shocks and springs?

Up to 40mm is the TUV approved range, in real life they do go a little lower.

Let me know if we can be any help with info or prices.
