Hatchback | Front-Wheel Drive (FWD)
Spring Rates: 6 kg/mm Front / 6 kg/mm Rear
Coilover Type: RA (True Rear Coilover)
BC Racing BR Series coilovers for the SEAT Leon 1P MK2 (2005–2012) with 54.5mm front strut are engineered to provide an excellent balance between performance, comfort, and ride height adjustability, making them ideal for both daily driving and spirited road use.
This RA-type kit features a true rear coilover configuration, replacing the factory rear spring and damper setup with a unified coilover assembly. This design improves rear axle control, allows precise ride height adjustment, and delivers more consistent damping behaviour compared to the OEM suspension layout.
The factory-selected 6 / 6 kg/mm spring rate combination is optimised for the Leon 1P chassis, offering improved chassis stability, reduced body roll, and sharper handling response, while still maintaining a comfortable and civil ride suitable for long journeys and everyday use.
As part of BC Racing’s proven BR Series range, this suspension is more than capable of handling fast road driving and track day use, yet retains enough comfort so the vehicle remains usable for daily commuting without becoming harsh or tiring.
