XYZ Racing Street Advanced Coilovers — Honda ACCORD CR 2013-2017

The ninth-generation Accord CR is a heavy, soft saloon that was tuned for the American freeway above all else – long travel, generous compliance, and a front end that washes wide the moment you ask the chassis a question it wasn’t built to answer. The XYZ Racing Street Advanced coilover is the kit that turns that compliance into composure without binning the daily-driver manners owners actually use.

This is the enthusiast-street pick in the XYZ range: ride height adjustment, 720 ways of damping adjustment in a single knob, and a spring-and-shock pairing tuned for UK B-roads and the occasional track day rather than a circuit-only setup. For a CR-chassis Accord on its original dampers at ten years old, the difference is the entire car.

What this coilover does for your 2013-2017 Honda Accord

Drop the nose 25-30 mm and the CR’s profile changes immediately – the wheel-arch gap that has aged the car badly is gone, and the centre of gravity drops with it. On the road you feel the front end settle into corners instead of leaning onto its outside shoulder; turn-in sharpens and mid-corner steering goes quiet. The 720-way damping range is the part that earns its keep in a car this size: wind off the clicks for a long motorway leg and the ride stays civilised; wind them on for a Sunday morning and body control tightens up enough that the rear axle starts following the front honestly. Brake dive under hard stops is meaningfully reduced, which on a 1,600 kg saloon is felt at the pedal rather than just seen from outside.

About the Street Advanced coilover

Street Advanced is XYZ’s most popular kit and the one the brand positions as its everyday-and-occasional-track unit. The single 720-way adjuster sits at the top of each damper and controls compression and rebound together, which is the right call for a road-biased owner who wants a tuneable kit without a track engineer’s spreadsheet. Spring rates and damper valving are specified for normal road use with circuit days in mind, so the kit has the travel to cope with broken UK tarmac and the control to cope with a hot lap. XYZ developed and refined the platform over years of testing with their race teams worldwide before releasing it to the street range, and that pedigree shows up in the damper consistency once the oil is up to temperature. Pillowball top mounts and pre-set camber where the chassis allows it are part of the package on most fitments – check the configurator below for what is included on the CR-specific application.

Fitment for the Honda Accord (2013-2017)

This kit is built specifically for the CR-chassis Honda Accord, covering 2013 through 2017 model years. The chassis code matters – the CR Accord has a different strut geometry to the earlier CP/CU cars and to the later CV facelift, and this coilover is valved for the CR’s weight and front-strut layout. Confirm your year and chassis code in the configurator before checkout.
