XYZ Racing Super Sport Coilovers — Mercedes-Benz S CLASS W222 4WD (NON MBC hydraulic) 2014-2020

The W222 S-Class was engineered to glide, and the 4MATIC variants without Magic Body Control carry their two-tonne-plus kerb weight on conventional steel springs that were never set up to be hustled. The XYZ Racing Super Sport coilover replaces that long-travel saloon-car compliance with a fast-road damper package that finally pins the nose down through a quick direction change without throwing away the long-wheelbase ride quality owners bought the car for.

For a W222 owner who wants the stance and body control of a properly sorted German super-saloon rather than the floaty default setting, this is the right starting point. The Super Sport spec is fast-road first, with the damping range to handle the occasional spirited B-road run without becoming a chore on the motorway home.

What this coilover does for your 2014-2020 Mercedes Benz S Class W222

Drop the W222’s ride height into its proper visual window and the car looks like the long-bonnet executive it was always meant to be. More importantly, 30-step adjustable damping lets you trim out the secondary float that big-displacement S-Class saloons develop when loaded, so mid-corner attitude becomes something you set rather than something the car decides for you. Body roll through a roundabout drops meaningfully, turn-in sharpens at the front axle, and the rear stops squatting under throttle on the 4MATIC’s split torque. Independent ride-height and damping adjustment also means you can level the car correctly for staggered fitments or four-up loaded touring without resorting to spacers or air-assist hacks.

About the Super Sport coilover

Super Sport is the XYZ range’s fast-road platform: a 30-way adjustable damper running through a single knob that controls compression and rebound together, paired with springs rated for a daily-driven car that still needs to handle being pushed. Pillowball top-mounts feature where the original strut design accepts them, sharpening steering response without introducing the harshness that solid mounts bring. Construction is monotube, which matters on a heavy car like the W222 because monotube dampers run cooler and resist fade over a long, fast run. Ride height is fully adjustable on the lower bracket rather than by spring preload, so you can sit the car low without binding the spring or shortening usable stroke. The kit is a direct replacement for the original 4MATIC strut and rear damper assemblies on non-MBC cars.

Fitment for the Mercedes Benz S CLASS W222 (2014-2020)

This kit is specified for the W222-generation S-Class on the 4MATIC drivetrain, chassis code ME65, build years 2014 through 2020, and crucially for cars running the conventional steel-spring suspension rather than the optional Magic Body Control hydraulic system. If your W222 has MBC, this is not the correct part – check the suspension type on your build sheet before ordering.
