DSE Rear 2 Inch Drop Springs (041812DS) - 2010 - 2015 Chevrolet Camaro
Lower the rear of your 2010-2015 Chevrolet Camaro and sharpen its suspension response with Detroit Speed Rear 2 Inch Drop Springs. DSE 041812DS combines a substantial 2-inch reduction in rear ride height with an increased 425 pounds per inch spring rate, giving the fifth-generation Camaro a lower, more aggressive stance while improving performance handling. These springs are engineered as direct replacements for the factory rear springs and retain the original spring isolators for a clean, straightforward suspension upgrade.
Detroit Speed engineered the 041812DS rear springs to improve handling without sacrificing the ride quality expected from a street-driven performance car. The 425 pounds per inch spring rate is higher than the factory rates Detroit Speed lists for both V8 SS and V6 applications, providing additional suspension control while the 2-inch drop lowers the Camaro's stance. Each spring has a 9.625-inch free length, and the springs are supplied as a pair so both sides of the rear suspension can be upgraded together.

Fitment Notes
DSE 041812DS is designed for 2010-2015 Chevrolet Camaro applications. These rear springs are direct replacements for the factory springs and retain the factory spring isolators. Detroit Speed's installation procedure also uses a rear suspension drop limiter to prevent the rear spring from leaving its spring seat when the suspension is fully drooped. As with any lowering-spring installation, a professional alignment should be performed after the suspension work is complete.
