XYZ Racing Street Advanced Coilovers — Honda CRV IV 2012-2016

The fourth-generation CR-V was never designed to corner flat. Its tall ride height, soft factory dampers and family-SUV brief leave it leaning into roundabouts and pitching under braking – the trade-off Honda made for school-run comfort. The XYZ Racing Street Advanced coilover addresses that without turning a 1.6-tonne crossover into a track refugee.

This is the road-biased kit in XYZ’s range, built for owners who want their CR-V IV to sit lower, turn in sharper and ride with proper damper control – while still surviving a Tesco car park speed bump on Monday morning. Height is adjustable across the strut body, and 720 damping settings let you find a setup that suits the way the car is actually used.

What this coilover kit does for your 2012-2016 Honda CR-V IV

Drop the ride height and the CR-V’s centre of gravity follows it down, which is where the cornering gains come from on a tall SUV like this. The factory struts are tuned for comfort first, so body roll arrives early and stays late; the Street Advanced replaces them with a stiffer, more controlled platform that resists the lean without hammering your spine on broken Tarmac.

The 720-way damping adjustment is the part that earns its keep day-to-day. Wind it softer for a long motorway run with the family in the back, then firm it up for a B-road blast or a loaded boot full of bikes and roof boxes. Turn-in becomes more deliberate, mid-corner attitude is held rather than negotiated, and the front end stops washing wide on faster sweepers. Brake dive is noticeably reduced, which makes the CR-V’s middling factory pedal feel less vague under hard stops.

About the Street Advanced coilover

The Street Advanced is XYZ Racing’s most popular series and the one the company has spent the longest developing – the result of years of iteration by its in-house team and feedback gathered from competition use at events around the world. It is engineered specifically for normal road duty and occasional track day work, not full-bore circuit abuse, which is the right brief for a CR-V IV.

At its core sits 720 individual damping positions, accessed by a single adjuster knob on each unit. That granularity is the reason the kit can serve both ends of the use-case: there is enough range to soften it for daily commuting and enough to firm it up for a tighter, more responsive setup on a Sunday morning. Ride height is independently adjustable, so corner balance and stance can be set without giving up suspension travel. It is the sensible choice for drivers who want speed and control without forfeiting liveability.
