XYZ Racing Super Sport Coilovers — Kia SOUL PS 2014-2019

The second-gen Kia Soul PS is an awkward chassis to set up well. It is tall, square, and carries its weight high – the kind of body that rolls hard on the OEM dampers the moment you commit to a roundabout with any pace. The Super Sport coilover is the right answer for a Soul owner who wants the car to sit, turn, and stop like it means it, without giving up the daily-driver comfort that made them buy a Soul in the first place.

For fast-road work in a 2014-2019 Soul PS, this is the sensible specification. Height adjustment lets you pull the roof line down out of crossover territory and into something the wheel arches can actually frame; 36-way damping gives you the range to soften it back off when the road surface turns bad – and on a PS Soul, the road surface turns bad often.

What this coilover does for your 2014-2019 Kia Soul PS

Drop the ride height a sensible 30-40mm and the Soul stops feeling like it is leaning on its outside front tyre through every corner entry. Body roll falls away, steering response sharpens, and the high-set seating position suddenly makes sense as a vantage point rather than a liability. The 36-way damping range is the spec that matters here: wind it soft for the school run and broken urban tarmac, then firm it up for a B-road blast or a weekend airfield day. Braking stability also improves noticeably – controlled dive means the front tyres stay loaded properly under hard stops, which on a 1.3-tonne tall hatch is worth more than any pad upgrade.

About the Super Sport coilover

The Super Sport is XYZ Racing’s fast-road-with-occasional-track damper, and the engineering brief shows in how it behaves. It runs 36-way damping adjustment from a single knob per corner, which means rebound and compression move together on a tuned curve rather than being split out across separate adjusters. That keeps setup simple for owners who do not want to spend a weekend with a notepad and a stopwatch. Ride height is independently adjustable at each corner, so corner-weighting is on the table if you want it. XYZ Racing’s stated remit for this damper is to eliminate the harshness that comes from rough road surfaces while still giving you the body control of a proper performance setup – a brief that suits weekend race use and daily driving in equal measure.

Fitment for the Kia SOUL PS (2014-2019)

Engineered specifically for the PS-chassis Kia Soul built between 2014 and 2019 – the second-generation car. Confirm your registration date falls inside that window before ordering; the first-gen AM Soul and the later third-gen SK3 use different strut and rear-axle geometry.
