XYZ Racing Super Sport Coilovers — Mercedes-Benz E CLASS W213 8 CYL 2017-2023

The W213 E-Class in V8 guise carries close to two tonnes down the road, and every one of those kilograms has to be managed through a chassis that was tuned from the factory around AMG Ride Control’s air springs, not a fixed-rate coilover. Swap that adaptive setup out and you need a kit that can still cope with the car’s mass and torque without turning every B-road into a chore. The XYZ Racing Super Sport coilover for this generation E CLASS W213 8 CYL is built for exactly that brief: fast-road driving with enough composure in reserve for a weekend track session.

Where the standard air suspension trades away outright body control for comfort, this kit lets you set the balance yourself. Ride height and damping are both in your hands, so the car can be dropped and stiffened for a track outing on Saturday and wound back for the drive home on Sunday, without swapping parts.

What this coilover kit brings to your 2017-2023 Mercedes Benz E CLASS W213 8 CYL

A car this heavy, with 4MATIC+ all-wheel drive putting power down hard off the line, loads its dampers unevenly the moment you get on the throttle or brake pedal. The 36-way damping adjustment on this Super Sport kit gives you the range to tighten compression under that load, cutting the nose-dive and squat that come with the W213’s mass shifting fore and aft. Firming the rebound side keeps the rear settled through direction changes instead of letting the car wallow after the air suspension’s softer factory tune. Ride height is independently adjustable too, so you can drop the car for a lower centre of gravity and sharper turn-in without losing the wheel travel this chassis needs to stay planted over UK B-roads. The result is a car that turns in with less roll and holds its line under power, while still absorbing the bumps and expansion joints that catch out anything set up purely for a smooth circuit.

About the Super Sport coilover

XYZ Racing built the Super Sport line to solve a specific problem: stock and cheap aftermarket dampers either soak up every ripple in the road surface at the cost of body control, or stiffen everything up and beat the driver’s back over a long journey. This kit addresses the discomfort that comes with rough UK tarmac directly, using 36 discrete damping settings so the compression and rebound curve can be tuned to the surface rather than left as one compromise setting. Ride height adjustment is built into the same assembly, giving independent control over stance and spring preload rather than forcing a fixed drop. Construction is aimed at cars that see daily traffic as well as circuit laps, so the kit is calibrated to hold a consistent setting through repeated heat cycling rather than requiring readjustment after every session. It’s the same reasoning XYZ Racing applies across its coilover range: give the owner a single kit that covers both a commute and a track day, rather than forcing a choice between the two.

Fitment for the Mercedes Benz E CLASS W213 8 CYL (2017-2023)

This Super Sport kit is built to the ME30-3 chassis code, covering the V8 E CLASS W213 across the 2017 to 2023 model years. Because the W213 8-cylinder cars run AMG’s own suspension geometry and mounting points, this fitment is specific to that platform rather than shared with the four- or six-cylinder W213 range. Confirm your build year sits within the 2017-2023 span before ordering.
