Overview:
Skunk2 Racing Lowering Springs are engineered to enhance the driving dynamics of the Subaru BRZ (2013–2020) and Toyota 86 (2017–2020). Designed for enthusiasts seeking improved handling and a more aggressive stance, these springs lower the vehicle’s center of gravity to reduce body roll and increase cornering grip. Whether on the street or the track, drivers will experience sharper turn-in, reduced squat during acceleration, and minimized nose dive under braking, all while maintaining a comfortable ride quality.
These springs are ideal for owners who want to improve their car’s performance and aesthetics without compromising daily drivability. Compatible with both OEM and aftermarket shock absorbers, they provide a seamless upgrade that complements stock or upgraded wheels.

Construction & Design:
Each Skunk2 Lowering Spring is precision CNC-wound from high-quality SAE 9254V spring steel, known for its superior strength and durability. The springs undergo a shot-peen stress-relief process to enhance fatigue life and maintain consistent performance over time. To protect against corrosion and wear, they are treated with a specialized phosphate coating followed by a durable powdercoat finish, ensuring long-lasting reliability and an attractive appearance.
The engineering focus balances race-inspired handling with everyday comfort, resulting in a suspension upgrade that feels responsive without harshness. This meticulous construction ensures that the springs deliver consistent performance while withstanding the rigors of spirited driving.
Installation & Fitment:
Skunk2 Lowering Springs are designed for direct fitment on the Subaru BRZ (2013–2020) and Toyota 86 (2017–2020) models. Installation typically involves removing the factory springs and replacing them with the Skunk2 set, with no additional modifications required. They are compatible with OEM shocks and struts, but pairing with performance dampers can further enhance handling characteristics.
Professional installation is recommended to ensure proper alignment and suspension geometry, which will maximize the benefits of the lowered stance and improved handling.
