XYZ Racing Street Advanced Coilovers — Mercedes-Benz CLA35 C118 4WD φ55.5 2019-2025

The CLA35 C118’s 4Matic drivetrain sends drive to all four corners, but the weight of that AMG-tuned turbocharged four still sits ahead of the front axle line, and the coupe-roofed four-door does nothing to lower the car’s centre of mass. Built around all-weather traction rather than outright chassis balance, the factory suspension leans toward comfort, so body control gets loose the moment you load the front tyres hard into a roundabout or a fast B-road bend.

XYZ Racing’s Street Advanced coilover kit for the Mercedes Benz CLA35 C118 4WD φ55.5 is built around that trade-off: keep the ride usable every day, but give the driver enough damping range to firm things up when the road allows it. It suits an owner who wants one set of coilovers to cover the commute and a spirited weekend drive, not a car that only makes sense on a circuit.

What this coilover does for your 2019-2025 Mercedes Benz CLA35 C118 4WD φ55.5

With 720 damping settings spread across compression and rebound, you can back the front end off soft enough to absorb potholes on the school run, then wind in support for a Sunday drive without swapping any parts. Because the 4Matic driveline carries extra weight low and forward, a firmer front rebound setting steadies the nose transition into a bend instead of feeding that reaction through the steering wheel. The φ55.5 strut body gives the damper a wider working range than the CLA35’s standard unit, so mid-corner compliance does not vanish the moment you tighten things up. Ride height adjustment lets you correct the CLA35’s factory rake or drop the car for a cleaner stance without touching geometry that would otherwise need an alignment shop’s attention. The result is a car that still rides properly on a motorway but stops wallowing the instant you ask more of the front axle.

About the Street Advanced coilover

Street Advanced is XYZ Racing’s most widely fitted range, refined over several years of in-house development and proven in international motorsport before being adapted for road cars. It sits between XYZ’s comfort-led street kits and its dedicated track ranges, built to cover both daily commuting and the occasional track day on the same set of dampers. The 720-way adjustment is the headline figure: enough resolution that two or three clicks either side of a baseline setting produce a genuinely different ride, rather than the coarse steps of a basic damper. XYZ positions this range as the kit for a driver who wants the car to respond precisely to steering and throttle input, not just cushion it, while still expecting to drive the CLA35 on normal roads every week. For an owner chasing both control and everyday usability from one coilover kit, Street Advanced is built to answer both requirements rather than forcing a choice between them.

Fitment for the Mercedes Benz CLA35 C118 4WD φ55.5 (2019-2025)

This kit is built specifically for the C118-generation CLA35, chassis code ME28-2, across the 2019 to 2025 model years, and is matched to the 4Matic all-wheel-drive drivetrain rather than a front-wheel-drive CLA variant. Confirm your car is the 4WD φ55.5 strut-diameter version before ordering, since XYZ Racing produces separate kits for other CLA drivetrain and strut configurations.
