Ferrari 488 GTB (without hydraulic lift system) (Cancellation Kit for Electronic Damping) 2016-2026 — Coilovers

The Ferrari 488 GTB left Maranello on SCM-E magnetorheological dampers, a system that reads the road and adjusts firmness in milliseconds. Fit a set of mechanical coilovers in their place and the car’s control unit notices the original dampers have gone, throwing a chassis warning. This XYZ Racing coilover package for the Ferrari 488 GTB (without hydraulic lift system) solves both halves of that problem at once: a height-and-damping-adjustable coilover set, plus the cancellation kit for the electronic damping that keeps the dashboard quiet.

Because this fitment covers cars without the nose-lift option, there is no lift hardware to retain, which keeps the front strut design clean and the install straightforward. Pick the spec that matches how you actually use the car, from fast-road compliance to full circuit stiffness.

What this coilover does for your 2016-2026 Ferrari 488 GTB

Lowering a 488 GTB closes the visible arch gap and drops the centre of gravity on a car whose mass already sits low and central behind the cabin. With ride height set on threaded bodies rather than spacers, you control corner balance properly instead of accepting the factory compromise. The adjustable damping gives back the firmness range the SCM-E system used to manage automatically, so you can run a softer setting for road use and wind it up for a track session. On a mid-engined platform like this, that rear damping control is what settles the car under power out of slow corners and keeps the nose planted on turn-in. Stance, body control and tyre contact all improve together once the height and damping are set for your roads.

About the coilover range

XYZ Racing builds this kit as a fully threaded, height-adjustable coilover with independent damping adjustment, supplied alongside the electronic-damping cancellation kit the 488 GTB requires. The range spans nine specifications so you can match the build to its job. Super Sport and Street Advanced lean toward fast-road use, trading a little outright stiffness for daily usability. Top Sport, Circuit Master and Racing Spec move toward harder spring and damper settings for sustained track work, where body control matters more than ride comfort. Drift Spec, plus the Tarmac Rally, Gravel Rally and Pro Rally options, cover the more specialist disciplines in the catalogue. Each variant ships with the same cancellation kit, so the car’s electronics behave whichever spec you choose. A 488 used mainly on the road and one prepared for circuit days need different damper curves, and a single generic coilover serves neither well.

Fitment for the Ferrari 488 GTB (2016-2026)

This kit is specified for the Ferrari 488 GTB, chassis reference FE03-1-C, across the 2016 to 2026 year span. It is the correct version for cars built without the hydraulic nose-lift system, and it includes the cancellation kit needed to disable the factory electronic damping. Confirm your car lacks the front lift option before ordering, as the lift-equipped 488 takes a different front strut.
