XYZ Racing Street Advanced Coilovers — Mercedes-Benz GLB X247 4WD φ55 2019-2026

The GLB X247’s tall body and 4WD hardware add weight up high and at both axles, which shows up as body roll the moment you load the car into a roundabout or a motorway slip road. The Street Advanced kit is XYZ Racing’s road-and-track-day set, built for owners who want the GLB planted on a fast B-road on Saturday and still liveable on the commute Monday.

Height and damping are both in your hands, so the ride can be set firm for a track day at Cadwell or backed off for a family run without swapping parts. For a 4WD crossover carrying this much mass over its wheelbase, that range matters more than on a lighter hatch.

What this coilover does for your 2019-2026 Mercedes Benz GLB X247 4WD Φ55

Lowering the centre of gravity is the first win: less roll under load means the outside front tyre keeps a more consistent contact patch through a corner, and the GLB stops leaning on its factory springs mid-bend. With 720 damping settings on tap, you can firm up compression and rebound to control body movement during hard direction changes, then soften it back off for broken tarmac and speed bumps without the harshness a fixed-rate spring would bring. The adjustable ride height also lets you correct the factory stance, which on a taller 4WD platform like the X247 tends to sit high and soft from the factory for ground clearance rather than handling. Or you can level a nose-down or rear-heavy sit that shows up once you’ve added a roof box or a full family’s worth of luggage. The result on this GLB is a car that turns in with less delay and holds its line better under trail braking into a roundabout, while the damping range keeps the ride from turning brittle over the patchwork surfaces UK backroads throw up.

About the Street Advanced coilover

XYZ Racing’s Street Advanced sits in the range as the everyday-plus-track-day option, developed over several seasons of testing across the brand’s motorsport programme before reaching production spec. It’s built around 720 individual damping combinations, giving a far finer window for tuning ride versus control than a basic two- or four-way unit offers, useful on a 4WD chassis where front and rear loads behave differently under braking and acceleration. The construction is aimed squarely at drivers who split their time between daily commuting and the odd track day, rather than a car built exclusively for one or the other. Height adjustment is independent of damping, so ride height and stiffness can be dialled separately to suit the GLB’s higher kerb weight versus lighter hatchback platforms in the same range. It’s the kind of unit XYZ position as the core product for anyone serious about how their car handles without committing to a stripped-out track-only setup.

Fitment for the Mercedes Benz GLB X247 (2019-2026)

This kit is built specifically for the Mercedes Benz GLB X247 4WD Φ55, covering the 2019 to 2026 model years. The Φ55 designation refers to the strut/damper body diameter this kit is engineered around, so confirm your GLB matches this spec before ordering rather than assuming cross-compatibility with other Mercedes SUV platforms.
