XYZ Racing Tarmac Rally Coilovers — Lynk & Co 03 2018-2026

The Lynk & Co 03 sits on the CMA platform shared with the Volvo XC40 and Polestar 2 – a stiff, well-isolated structure that was tuned from the factory for comfort first, body control second. That makes it a frustrating starting point for anyone who has tracked the 03+ or 03 Cyan and felt the front axle wash wide on turn-in, or watched the rear settle a beat too late mid-corner. The Tarmac Rally coilover is the spec that fixes that without ripping the daily-driver character out of the car.

For sealed-surface stage work and aggressive tarmac driving in a 2018-2026 Lynk & Co 03, this is the kit aimed squarely at owners who run their car on real roads in the morning and timed sections in the afternoon. Spring rates and damper valving are pitched harder than the Street or Super Sport tiers, but the geometry is recognisably tarmac-rally rather than circuit-only.

What this coilover does for your 2018-2026 Lynk & Co 03

Body control is where you feel it first. The 03’s tall-ish ride height and softly-sprung front end mean the nose dives noticeably under hard braking into a hairpin; the Tarmac Rally damping arrests that movement and keeps weight planted on the outside front when you trail-brake. Mid-corner the car stops floating into a secondary lean and settles immediately, which is the difference between guessing the apex and committing to it. With 30-way adjustable damping you can soften the kit for broken B-road surfaces without losing the platform stiffness that tarmac-rally driving needs, and adjustable ride height lets you drop the centre of gravity to something the chassis was never given from Gothenburg. Pillowball top mounts on the front sharpen steering response so the 03 finally turns in the way the four-cylinder turbo deserves.

About the Tarmac Rally coilover

The Tarmac Rally sits in the XYZ Racing rally line specifically for sealed surfaces – so its construction shares the rally pedigree (reinforced shock bodies, dust covers, hardened internals) but the valving and rebound curves are tuned for grip rather than for the long-stroke compliance you’d want on gravel. Monotube damper design gives consistent oil flow and resists fade across a long stage or a full track day. The 30-step damper adjustment covers a wide enough range that one set of coilovers can serve a road-and-stage owner without recourse to a second specification. Ride height is independently adjustable so corner-weighting is possible, and the front camber plate accepts further alignment work for owners chasing specific tyre-wear patterns. Spring rates are pitched firmer than the Super Sport tier to support the heavier nose of the AWD 03 variants without becoming brittle on cold mornings.
