XYZ Racing Pro Rally Coilovers — Audi A5 B8 SPORTBACK (Cancellation Kit for Electronic Damping) 2009-2016

The B8 A5 carries its longitudinal engine well ahead of the front axle line, and on a loose-surface stage that nose-led mass is the first thing you have to manage. These XYZ Racing Pro Rally coilovers replace the factory adaptive struts on the Audi A5 B8 Sportback with a competition damper built for gravel and snow, and crucially they ship with the cancellation kit that stops the car’s electronic damping control flagging a fault once the OE adaptive units come off.

This is the top-flight rally end of the range, not a fast-road compromise. It is aimed at crews running the A5 B8 Sportback on stage surfaces where wheel travel, sealing and rebuild-ability matter more than kerb appeal.

What these coilovers do for your 2009-2016 Audi A5 B8 Sportback

Fitting a dedicated rally coilover changes how the 2009-2016 Audi A5 B8 Sportback uses its suspension travel over broken ground. You get a damper valved for loose surfaces rather than smooth tarmac, which means the car stays settled over ruts and compressions instead of skating on the edge of its travel. The cancellation kit is the part that makes this practical on the B8 platform: pull the standard electronic dampers and the included module keeps the system quiet, so there is no warning light battling you mid-event. For a heavy quattro nose, controlled compression and rebound on turn-in is what keeps the front axle biting on gravel.

About the Pro Rally coilover

The Pro Rally sits at the professional, competition-focused tier of XYZ Racing’s rally suspension. The vendor’s own breakdown splits rally gravel and snow setups into two install routes: an amateur fit that bolts straight to the original chassis, and a professional fit intended to go in after the bodyshell has been modified to suit. The Pro Rally is the serious option in that family, engineered specifically for gravel and snow stage use rather than occasional green-laning. As a true rally damper it prioritises usable travel, surface compliance and the ability to be serviced between events. Specification beyond the supplied facts should be confirmed against your build before ordering.
