XYZ Racing Street Advanced Coilovers — Ford FOCUS 2012-2018

The Mk3 Focus has always carried more chassis than its standard dampers knew what to do with. Ford’s control-blade independent rear axle gives this generation genuine composure on a quick back road, but the factory struts turn soft and floaty once the surface breaks up or the pace climbs. The XYZ Racing Street Advanced coilover for the 2012-2018 Ford Focus is built to close that gap.

Street Advanced sits at the road-and-occasional-track end of the XYZ Racing range, and it is the kit most Focus owners reach for first. It pairs a lower, flatter stance with damping you can actually match to your own roads, instead of living with the single fixed compromise the car left the factory with.

What this coilover does for your 2012-2018 Ford Focus

Wind the ride height down and the Focus sheds the slightly leggy gait it carries as standard, dropping its centre of gravity and quietening the body roll that blunts turn-in. The 720-way damping adjustment is the real tool here: slacken it off for a long motorway run, firm it for a B-road blast or a track day, and settle on a rate that suits the Focus’s nose-led balance rather than fighting it. Front-end bite sharpens, the rear stays planted through the control-blade axle, and the car stops pattering over the mid-corner bumps that used to unsettle it. Owners running the firmer end of the range rein in the squat and dive the standard setup never fully controlled. The outcome is a Focus that turns when you ask and stays calm when you don’t.

About the Street Advanced coilover

Street Advanced is the most popular kit in the XYZ Racing coilover line, and it has earned that over years of development by the company’s own engineering team. The design has been run and refined in competition around the world before being signed off for road use, so the on-car behaviour is shaped by racing rather than a spec sheet alone. Each kit offers 720 distinct damping settings, letting you separate the everyday comfort you want during the week from the body control you need when the road opens up. It is built for the dual life most fast-road Focus drivers lead: an easy daily one day, a sharper machine the next. For an owner who cares how the car steers and stops without surrendering ride quality, this kit is engineered to handle both jobs.
