Choosing the right DGR series for your car and driving
DGR Suspension comes in 3 series: ST · RC · DCS-2. Every series has adjustable ride height; they differ in damping design and in what you can adjust.
This guide helps you choose in four steps.
Step 1: Check your car first
ST and RC kits exist for every car in our list, and DCS-2 is built to order for each car. Start by searching for your car. Its vehicle page shows the available series, with a button to ask for the price on DGR Thailand’s LINE Official account.
If you have questions about your car, ask us on LINE Official.
Step 2: Answer four questions about how you use the car
- What is your main use? — daily city driving, long trips, spirited driving on winding roads, or track days
- What are your usual roads like? — smooth, or rough with potholes and frequent speed bumps
- Who rides with you? — mostly alone, or often family and luggage
- How low do you want to go, and what wheel and tyre sizes do you use?
These answers matter more than the numbers on a spec sheet, because they decide both the series and the spring rates.
Step 3: Match your use to a series
| If you want | Series | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Everyday comfort | ST | Positioned by the manufacturer for comfort, with 30 damping settings |
| Your own spring rates and damping, with camber adjustment | RC | Sport valving, 30 damping settings, custom spring rate (K), with a Pillowball top mount and Camber Plate |
| Competition or circuit use, with separate Rebound and Compression adjustment | DCS-2 | 2-Way: 30 Rebound and 15 Compression settings, with a nitrogen-charged external reservoir |
Specifications per the manufacturer. See the full comparison table for details.
Step 4: Don't forget what matters as much as the series
The same series can feel very different with a different setup.
- Spring rates — must suit the car’s weight, ride height and use
- Ride height — the lower the car, the less compression travel is left
- Installation and alignment — a good install and a correct alignment keep the car stable and the tyres wearing evenly
- Tyres and tyre pressure — low-profile tyres and high pressures make the ride feel busier
Common mistakes
- Choosing the most adjustable kit and never adjusting it — if you set it once and drive every day, a simpler kit may suit you better
- Going lower than you really need — the car scrapes, the tyres rub and the ride gets harsh
- Choosing springs stiffer than necessary — they help prevent bottoming out, but cost comfort
- Skipping the wheel alignment — the car feels unsettled and the tyres wear quickly
