XYZ Racing Tarmac Rally Coilovers — Ferrari F8 (without hydraulic lift system) 2020-2026

The F8 Tributo without the front-axle hydraulic lift is the version owners actually drive hard – lighter at the nose, no compromise on damper top-mount geometry, and a chassis that rewards a properly sorted suspension over the OE magnetorheological setup once you start chasing kerbs. The XYZ Racing Tarmac Rally coilover is built for that brief: keeping a 710bhp mid-engined twin-turbo planted across surfaces that punish anything tuned purely for billiard-table circuits.

This is not a street-comfort kit pretending to be competition hardware. The Tarmac Rally damper is purpose-tuned for sealed-stage rally use – rough tarmac, mid-corner compressions, kerb strikes that would unsettle a circuit-spec coilover. On an F8 Tributo (FE11), that translates to a suspension that holds the nose down under heavy braking into a crest and stops the rear stepping out when the road surface changes mid-corner.

What this coilover does for your 2020-2026 Ferrari F8

The F8’s rear-biased weight distribution and short wheelbase make it quick to rotate, but unforgiving when the road gets lumpy. The Tarmac Rally damping calibration lets the wheel travel work properly over secondary inputs – expansion joints, patched tarmac, kerb edges – rather than locking up and skipping the tyre across the surface. You feel it in traction out of slow corners, where the rear axle stays loaded instead of pattering. Steering response sharpens because the front damper is no longer fighting bump compliance against body control, and the car’s natural agility comes through without the OE setup’s occasional float over crested A-roads. For a Ferrari that’s actually being driven on UK B-roads or used at events like Goodwood Speed Week tarmac stages, the difference over a circuit-only coilover is immediately obvious.

About the Tarmac Rally coilover

Every setting in the Tarmac Rally damper carries over from XYZ Racing’s own tarmac rally programme – the brief is to absorb the impact of uneven pavement without losing chassis composure. The valving is calibrated to soak up the jolt of a big bump or a struck kerb, suppressing body shock through the chassis and keeping the contact patch loaded so the tyre can actually find traction. Where a circuit-tuned damper would skip and unload, this one stays in contact with the road. Construction follows XYZ Racing’s competition spec, and the geometry is matched to the F8’s standard (non-lift) front strut layout. The result is a coilover that handles surface variation the way a serious rally car has to: composed across the worst the road has to offer, predictable when the surface changes mid-corner.

Fitment for the Ferrari F8 (2020-2026)

Engineered specifically for the Ferrari F8 Tributo and Spider on chassis code FE11, model years 2020 through 2026. This kit fits the standard variant WITHOUT the front hydraulic lift system – the lift-equipped F8 uses a different front damper architecture and requires a different part number.
