BC Racing DS Series Coilover - 98-00 S70 P80

Item SKU: ZG-04-DS-DA

BC Racing DS Series coilovers for the 1998-2000 Volvo S70 P80. This vehicle-specific kit uses BC Racing's digressive-piston monotube dampers, aimed at giving the chassis more support during braking, corner entry, and quick direction changes without making higher-speed damper movement feel overly abrupt.

• DS damping design: The proprietary digressive piston increases damping force at lower piston speeds, where body roll, pitch, and dive are most noticeable. At higher piston speeds, the damping curve is designed to retain a more linear feel.
• Monotube dampers: A monotube shock layout with satin-chrome shock bodies. This stuff is built around consistent damping response when you're asking more from the car than the factory suspension was intended to handle.
• Independent height adjustment: Ride height is adjusted separately from spring compression, so lowering the car doesn't mean preloading the spring just to get the stance where you want it.
• Serviceable construction: DS Series coilovers are fully rebuildable, and BC Racing offers individual replacement components. No more treating the whole setup as disposable when a damper eventually needs attention.
• Configuration options: BC Racing offers custom spring rates, custom valving, and compatible Swift spring upgrades for applicable DS configurations. Mounting hardware and exact kit configuration are specific to the 1998-2000 S70 P80 application.

For an S70 that sees back roads, autocross, or track time, the useful part of the DS setup is the added control through roll, pitch, dive, and weight transfer. You can set ride height without disturbing spring compression, then work from there on alignment and the rest of the chassis setup.
