XYZ Racing Tarmac Rally Coilovers — Hyundai IX35 4WD 2009-2015

The IX35 4WD’s raised crossover stance carries more body mass above the sills than a saloon, and its all-wheel-drive hardware shifts extra weight rearward compared with the front-drive version. On a tightening tarmac stage that combination shows up as roll and a reluctance to change direction cleanly, which is exactly what a Tarmac Rally-spec damper is built to control.

XYZ Racing’s Tarmac Rally coilover for the Hyundai IX35 4WD (2009-2015) is set up for sealed-stage work, where mid-corner camber changes, patched surfaces and an unmarked pothole all arrive at speed with no warning. The damping is calibrated to keep the tyre loaded through those moments rather than letting the taller body pitch and wallow.

What this coilover does for your 2009-2015 Hyundai IX35 4WD

Fitted to the IX35 4WD, the damper takes the hit from broken tarmac and mid-corner ridges without throwing the body sideways, which matters on a platform that already sits taller than a hatchback. Instead of the chassis skipping over successive bumps, the wheel stays pressed into the road surface, keeping the front tyres loaded when you’re trail-braking into a hairpin under the AWD driveline’s weight transfer. Grip stays consistent rather than tailing off as the stage surface degrades, and the car holds its line over patched or cambered tarmac instead of stepping wide. That composure is what lets a driver commit to the same braking point the second and third time through a stage.

About the Tarmac Rally coilover

XYZ Racing built the Tarmac Rally coilover specifically for sealed-surface stage work, where the damper has to soak up uneven pavement without transmitting the jolt of a big compression straight into the body. The valving is calibrated to suppress that body movement on impact rather than let it travel through to the chassis, which keeps the contact patch working and the tyre’s traction intact through the hit. The aim is a car that stays settled and predictable through a corner rather than one that unsettles itself on the way in. XYZ Racing carries its own tarmac rally programme, and the damping settings on this kit come directly from that racing experience rather than a generic road-going baseline.
