Hyundai Genesis Coupe Coilovers

Our Hyundai Genesis Coupe coilovers fit the 2.0T and the 3.8, and only Ksport makes a separate kit for each engine. No other coupe kit name mentions an engine. Two kit names also mention front sway bar links. The Genesis sedan has its own section further down, the Genesis G70 has one BC kit at the end, and BC Racing comes first in the coupe and sedan sections.

2.0T or 3.8, 2010 or later? Call 1-800-460-9106.

Animated illustration. It shows where coilovers sit on a car, not your exact kit. Depending on the car and the kit, coilovers can lean forward or back or stand straight up, and some cars use a separate spring and shock in the rear. Your ride height depends on the kit and how it is set up.

What coilovers change on a Genesis Coupe

A coilover puts the spring and damper in one unit, and you set ride height on its threaded body. On this car, three things decide which kit fits.

Engine

Only Ksport has separate 2.0T and 3.8 kits. No other coupe kit name mentions an engine.

Model year

TEIN lists a 2010 kit and a 2011 to 2016 kit. Ksport also changes kits at 2011.

Sway bar links

Bilstein and TEIN each mention front sway bar links in the kit name. Read it before you order.

BC Racing coilovers for the Genesis

One coupe kit with five series, three sedan kits and a G70 kit

BC Racing coilovers for the Genesis Coupe come in five series: BR, DS, ER, RM and ZX. All five come on the single 2010 to 2016 coupe kit. The three sedan kits come in BR and DS, and the G70 kit in BR, DS or RM. Free shipping on BC Racing kits in the continental US.

Five BC series on the coupe

Each series is a different coilover design, and all fit the same coupe.

BR and DS, coupe and sedan

BR sets compression and rebound together with one 30-click knob. DS uses the same knob plus a digressive piston, firmer on small movements.

RM, coupe only

RM is BC's inverted (upside-down) monotube, made for MacPherson strut cars.

ER and ZX, coupe only

ER has an upright shock, an external oil reservoir, and 30 clicks each for compression and rebound, set separately. BC calls ZX its "most track-tested" series.

Every BC Genesis kit name says "Swift Front Only". To add Swift Springs, order through the Custom Build for BC Coilovers page and ask us about the rear first.

KW, Bilstein, TEIN, Feal and Ksport

Five more brands make Genesis kits. Call 1-800-460-9106 and we will compare any two.

KW has one kit for the BK Genesis Coupe (BK is its chassis code), 2009 to 2016.

Bilstein makes a B14 PSS kit for the 2010 to 2016 coupe. Its name says "Requires 2011 Front Sway Bar Links".

TEIN makes Street Basis Z coilovers in two kits: one for 2010, and one for 2011 to 2016 that calls for 2010 link rods.

Feal has one kit named "Genesis" for 2006 to 2018. The name does not say coupe or sedan.

Ksport has four coupe kits: 2.0T and 3.8, with a pre-2011 and a later version for each.

Kits for daily driving, autocross and the sedan

Daily-driven 2.0T

You can change the height later, so start with a modest drop.

Made for the 2.0T: Ksport 2.0T kits; the other coupe kits do not name an engine
3.8 at autocross

Set the height for the course, then ask us about damping.

Kits to look at: BC Racing ZX, which BC calls "most track-tested"
Genesis sedan

Pick the BC kit for your engine and years.

Made for the sedan: the three BC sedan kits; Feal does not say coupe or sedan, so call first

Every Genesis kit we carry

The kits below fall into four sections, based on what each kit name says.

Notes in BC kit names: "Swift Front Only" means the optional Swift spring upgrade is offered for the front springs only on that kit.

Before you buy: what Genesis Coupe owners run into

What Genesis Coupe owners report most often, from owner forums, recalls and service bulletins, and what each point means for your coilovers.

Recall: rear differential bolts may loosen
BK manual transmission, 2013 to 2015

Hyundai recalled about 10,800 2013 to 2015 manual Genesis Coupes (NHTSA 15V756) because the differential and rear crossmember may not have been aligned at assembly, letting the differential bolts loosen. Dealers check it free of charge. A rear coilover install puts you right at the crossmember, so it is a good time to confirm the recall was done.

Before you install: Run the VIN through NHTSA's recall lookup before the install, and have the dealer do the check if it is still open.

Rear camber and toe after lowering
BK, 2010 to 2016

A suspension specialist says that on a lowered Genesis Coupe the factory rear hardware no longer holds alignment, and sells rear camber arms to fix tire wear. Parts makers also sell adjustable rear toe arms for the 2009 to 2016 car. Lowering adds negative rear camber, which wears the inner rear tire edges.

Before you install: Set ride height, then align, and add adjustable rear camber and toe arms if the shop cannot bring the rear into spec.

Genesis Coupe history

Hyundai's rear-drive coupe

A 2009 review in The Auto Channel praised the 2010 Genesis Coupe for "great rear-wheel driving."

  1. 2010
    2.0TThe turbocharged 2.0 liter four made 210 hp, in 2.0T, 2.0T Premium and 2.0T Track trims.
  2. 2010
    3.8The 3.8 liter V6 made 312 hp.
  3. Track
    Firmer setupThe review notes firmer springs and shock absorbers and larger stabilizer bars on the Track trim.

Whichever engine your coupe has, the kits above show what fits it.

Genesis Coupe coilover questions

Do the 2.0T and 3.8 Genesis Coupe use the same coilover kit?

The BC, KW, Bilstein and TEIN kit names do not mention an engine. Ksport sells separate 2.0T and 3.8 kits, so pick the one for your engine.

What is the note about front sway bar links?

Two kit names mention them. Bilstein says "Requires 2011 Front Sway Bar Links", and TEIN's 2011 to 2016 kit says "Requires 2010 Model Front Sway Bar Link Rods". Ask us before you order.

How many BC series does the coupe get?

The coupe gets five: BR, DS, ER, RM and ZX, all on the one BC coupe kit. The three BC sedan kits come in BR and DS.

Can I fit coilovers to a Genesis sedan?

Yes. BC lists three sedan kits, based on V8 or not and on years. Feal also has a kit named for the Genesis that does not say coupe or sedan.

Is there a kit for the Genesis G70?

BC lists one set of Genesis G70 coilovers, for 2019 to 2023, in BR, DS or RM. It is in the last section of this page. Call us to confirm the fit for your G70.

Does a BC Racing Genesis kit have a warranty?

BC Racing North America currently lists a two-year limited warranty on full kit orders, subject to its warranty terms. KW, Bilstein, TEIN, Feal and Ksport set their own.
