Suspension

2015-2020 Honda Fit GK5

The GK is a pretty fun car to drive with the stock suspension, and is capable in roads with a lot of corners. Suspension plays an even bigger part here when you upgrade the springs, shocks, coilovers or a chassis stiffening sway bar. Below we’ll go through what you can add to your GK5:

A highly recommended first mod for the GK is the Progress rear sway. You can purchase and read more about it on the official site. Installation instructions are here.

Coilovers are shock absorbers designed to be able to adjust ride height, and specifically to improve handling. Ride quality may suffer depending on the suspension options selected as lowering a car can mean a bumpy ride. The main purpose of these devices is to reduce body roll and increase corner speed.

Getting rid of bad body roll is key to making your car perform even better and the suspension plays the biggest role in that!
