XYZ Racing Tarmac Rally Coilovers — Mitsubishi EVO10 4WD 2008-2016

The EVO10’s 4WD system puts power down through every stage, but on sealed tarmac the MT20 chassis needs a damper that keeps all four contact patches loaded evenly over broken surfaces at speed, not just gripping in a straight line. Standard road-biased suspension folds under repeat compressions on a stage – it wallows through the transition and loses front bite exactly when you need it turning in off a crest.

XYZ Racing’s Tarmac Rally coilover is built for that specific job: absorbing sharp-edged impacts from uneven tarmac without transmitting the jolt straight into the chassis, so the tyre stays planted and the car stays composed corner after corner.

What this coilover kit does for your 2008-2016 Mitsubishi Evo10 4WD

Fitted to the EVO10, this kit changes how the car reacts the moment the road surface turns rough. Big compressions – the kind a mid-stage pothole or crumbling apex throws at the car – get absorbed by the damper rather than kicking through the body, which keeps the chassis settled instead of skipping sideways. That control translates directly into traction: less energy spent unsettling the car means more of the AWD system’s output actually reaches the road through the tyre. Owners running the EVO10 hard on sealed stages will feel the difference most under trail-braking into a compression and on the exit, where a calmer chassis lets the driveline put power down cleanly instead of fighting body movement. The result is a car that holds its line through a rough section rather than getting deflected off it.

About the Tarmac Rally coilover

This is a damper built specifically around tarmac rally use, not a generic track coilover repurposed for stage work. Its core job is absorbing the impact of uneven pavement – sharp hits from cambers, patched surfaces and stage-edge debris – without letting that shock reach the body shell. XYZ Racing tunes the valving to suppress that shock at the body while simultaneously working to increase the tyre’s traction rather than letting the impact bounce the contact patch off the road. The stated aim is stability that lets the driver feel the car handling predictably through a stage rather than reacting to it. Every setting on this unit comes directly from XYZ Racing’s own tarmac rally programme, carried over from stage experience into a road-going kit rather than derived on a bench.
