XYZ Racing Gravel Rally Coilovers — Ferrari 812 (with hydraulic lift system) 2017-2026

The 812 Superfast was never meant to see a gravel stage – 6.5 litres of naturally aspirated V12 sat ahead of the front axle, rear-wheel drive, and a kerb weight that punishes every undulation. Which is precisely why the few owners brave or eccentric enough to campaign an FE08 on loose surfaces need a damper built around displacement, not finesse.

This is the XYZ Racing Gravel Rally coilover developed for that exact brief. Long stroke, long spring, inverted tube – a setup engineered to soak up the kind of high-speed compressions that would put a road-spec damper through the strut tower on the first jump.

What this coilover does for your 2017-2026 Ferrari 812 (with hydraulic lift system)

On gravel, the 812’s front weight bias becomes a liability – the nose loads hard, the rears go light over crests, and conventional dampers run out of travel in the first stage. The inverted tube construction here resists side-loading from rutted surfaces, where a standard strut would bind. Long stroke gives the chassis somewhere to go when you land a compression at speed, and the spring rates have been set by XYZ’s own rally programme rather than guessed from a road catalogue. The result on a Ferrari 812 is a car that stays connected to the surface under attack instead of skipping across it, with enough damping authority to handle the cornering G-forces a V12 GT generates when it’s actually being driven hard.

About the Gravel Rally coilover

The Gravel Rally is XYZ Racing’s most specialised damper, developed specifically for rally and rallycross competition – the most punishing road conditions in motorsport. The inverted tube design is the headline: it relocates the larger-diameter section to the upper body, increasing rigidity and side-load resistance against sandstone, snow, and silt impact. Stroke length is extended well beyond what a circuit damper carries, paired with longer springs that absorb chassis vibration from rough surfaces while still bearing the lateral G-force loads of high-speed turning. Every spring rate in the catalogue has been validated by XYZ’s rally racing team in competition, not on a dyno. This is not a road coilover with stiffer valving – it is a different category of damper.

Fitment for the Ferrari 812 (with hydraulic lift system) (2017-2026)

Built for the FE08 chassis, 2017 through 2026, in the hydraulic-lift-system variant. The application accounts for the front-axle lift hardware Ferrari fitted to clear UK speed bumps and circuit kerbs, so the geometry matches the factory mounting points.
