XYZ Racing Drag Racing Coilovers — Mercedes-Benz AMG GT S/ GT C (Cancellation Kit for Electronic Damping) 2015-2026

The AMG GT’s front-mid V8 layout sits the M178 twin-turbo behind the front axle and hangs a transaxle over the rear wheels – a balance built for circuit poise, not the violent rearward weight shift a standing start needs. This XYZ Racing Drag Racing coilover for the Mercedes Benz AMG GT S/ GT C is set up for the opposite job: planting load on the driven rear tyres the instant the car leaves the line.

It ships as a cancellation kit for electronic damping, which matters on this chassis. The GT S and GT C run AMG Ride Control adaptive dampers from the factory, and pulling them normally throws fault codes across the cluster. The included cancellation module bypasses that electronics so the car runs clean on manually set coilovers, leaving you to control ride height and corner weights by hand.

What this coilover does for your 2015-2026 Mercedes Benz AMG GT S/ GT C

With a twin-turbo V8 putting that much torque through the rear axle, traction off the line is the limiting factor, not power. Manual height and corner-weight adjustment lets you bias static load rearward and drop the nose, so the GT squats onto its driven tyres instead of spinning them away. Firm, hand-set damping keeps the front from unloading too sharply as the weight pitches back, which holds the launch repeatable run to run. Bypassing AMG Ride Control also removes the variable of the car second-guessing your damper settings mid-pass.

About the Drag Racing coilover

The Drag Racing series is built specifically for 0 to 400 metre work rather than general fast-road or circuit use. Its damping is tuned to manage front-to-rear weight transfer during the launch itself, forcing greater compression onto the driven tyres at the moment it counts. The result is less wasted wheel idle as the rubber hooks up, and steadier behaviour as terminal speed climbs at the top end. The same design logic XYZ Racing applies across front, rear and four-wheel-drive drag platforms is set here for the rear-driven AMG GT. The priority throughout is bite at the line and stability through the traps, not ride comfort.

Fitment for the Mercedes Benz AMG GT S/ GT C (2015-2026)

This kit is specified for the ME54-C chassis Mercedes Benz AMG GT S and GT C across the 2015-2026 model span. It is the cancellation-kit variant, meaning it includes the module required to delete the factory electronic damping. Confirm your car carries the original AMG Ride Control setup before fitting.
