Product Overview
TEIN S.Tech Lowering Springs for Toyota GR Yaris GXPA16
Transform the appearance and handling of your Toyota GR Yaris with the TEIN S.Tech Lowering Spring Kit SKTN0-S3B00, available from Performance Cars Parts UK.
The GR Yaris is already one of Toyota Gazoo Racing’s most capable performance cars, but lowering the centre of gravity can further enhance its road presence and suspension response. The TEIN S.Tech GR Yaris lowering springs are engineered to provide a carefully calculated reduction in ride height while retaining a level of comfort suitable for road use.
Designed specifically for the Toyota GR Yaris GXPA16 1.6 turbo AWD, this kit provides approximately 25mm lowering at the front and 20mm at the rear.
Lower, More Aggressive GR Yaris Stance
The factory GR Yaris already has an aggressive wide-body design, but the standard suspension leaves room between the tyres and wheel arches.
Installing the TEIN S.Tech lowering springs reduces this wheel arch gap, producing a cleaner and more purposeful stance without the extreme ride-height reduction associated with some track-focused suspension systems.
Approximate ride-height reduction:
Front: -25mm
Rear: -20mm
Actual ride height can vary slightly according to vehicle specification, vehicle condition, installation and wheel/tyre setup.
Improved Handling and Reduced Body Movement
Lowering the vehicle’s centre of gravity can help reduce unwanted body movement during:
- Cornering
- Direction changes
- Hard braking
- Acceleration
- Fast road driving
TEIN states that the GR Yaris application is designed to suppress excessive body roll while retaining the original vehicle’s comfortable road characteristics.
The result is an excellent suspension upgrade for GR Yaris owners looking for a sportier setup without immediately moving to a complete coilover system.
GR Yaris-Specific Spring Rates
TEIN has developed dedicated front and rear spring rates for the GXPA16 platform.
Front Spring Rate: 3.2 kgf/mm
Rear Spring Rate: 4.1 kgf/mm
These rates have been selected specifically for the balance and suspension characteristics of the GR Yaris rather than using a universal lowering spring design.
Progressive Spring Design
TEIN S.Tech springs feature a progressive spring design intended to provide a balance between everyday road comfort and increased suspension control.
This makes them particularly attractive for customers searching for:
- Toyota GR Yaris lowering springs
- GR Yaris suspension upgrades
- GR Yaris handling upgrades
- GR Yaris fast road suspension
- GR Yaris lowering kits
- TEIN GR Yaris springs
- GXPA16 lowering springs
SAE9254V Chrome Vanadium Construction
TEIN S.Tech springs are manufactured using high-quality SAE9254V chrome vanadium steel, providing the strength and durability required for performance suspension applications.
The springs are finished in TEIN’s distinctive green coating, providing the instantly recognisable appearance associated with TEIN suspension components.
Designed to Work with Factory Dampers
One of the biggest advantages of the TEIN S.Tech GR Yaris lowering spring kit is that it is designed for installation with the vehicle’s original or equivalent replacement dampers.
This makes the S.Tech kit an excellent option for customers who want to lower their Toyota GR Yaris without replacing the complete suspension system with coilovers.
For best performance, dampers should always be inspected for condition before fitting new lowering springs.
Made in Japan
TEIN is one of Japan’s best-known performance suspension manufacturers, with products used on modified road cars, performance vehicles and motorsport applications around the world.
The S.Tech range provides an accessible way to upgrade the stance and suspension characteristics of the GR Yaris while retaining TEIN’s vehicle-specific engineering approach.
