Nissan Juke, Kicks, Rogue, Leaf, Versa and Cube Coilovers

These are the Nissans people drive to work: small crossovers, an electric hatch, a small sedan, a boxy wagon, even a delivery van. We carry coilovers for each one, mostly from BC Racing. Bilstein adds three kits for the Juke, and Ksport has two for older cars. That's seventeen kits, the NV200 van included.

Not sure of the generation? Read us the VIN: 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.

Pick from seven models

What decides the kit on a small Nissan

Three things decide which kit fits.

Front drive or AWD

BC makes separate AWD and FWD Juke kits. The first Rogue kit is AWD only.

Body style

BC makes a "Versa Sedan FWD" kit and a separate "Versa & Note FWD" kit.

Generation

Leaf, Rogue and Versa kits change with the generation.

BC Racing coilovers for small Nissans

BC Racing has twelve kits for these cars

BC Racing makes three series for the Juke, Kicks, Rogue, Leaf, Versa, Note, Cube and NV200: BR, DS and RM. Ten of the twelve kits come in BR only, and the Juke kits add DS or RM. Free shipping on BC Racing kits in the continental US.

Three BC series across twelve kits

Here is which kits each BC series comes on.

BR

BR has one 30-click knob for damping. It comes on all twelve BC kits.

DS

DS is BR plus a digressive piston for firmer control. It comes on the Juke FWD kit only.

RM

RM is an upside-down, single-tube shock for struts. It comes on both Juke kits.

Bilstein and Ksport kits

Two more brands make kits for these cars. Call 1-800-460-9106 to compare.

Bilstein has three Juke kits, each named "Including Nismo".

Ksport has kits for the first Versa and the Cube.

Cars with no kit

We have no kit for the FWD first-generation Rogue, the Rogue after 2020, the Kicks and Leaf after 2022, or the Versa after 2019.

Three example Nissans and their kits

2014 Juke Nismo RS, FWD

Look at the Juke kits.

Kits to look at: BC 2010-2017 Juke FWD, Bilstein Juke (Including Nismo) B12 Pro-Kit or B14 PSS Kit. BC's kit name does not mention the Nismo, so ask us first.
2020 Leaf Plus

There is one Leaf Plus kit.

Kits to look at: BC 2019-2022 Leaf Plus FWD (Swift Front Only)
2017 Versa Note

Look at the hatch kit.

Kits to look at: BC 2014-2019 Versa & Note FWD (Swift Front Only)

Every kit we carry, Juke to NV200

We list the crossovers first, then the electric car, the small cars and the van.

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

Good to know: BC's all-wheel-drive kit comes in BR or RM, and its front-drive kit in BR, DS or RM. Bilstein has three kits, each "Including Nismo": a B12 Pro-Kit and a B14 PSS Kit named "Juke", and a B12 Pro-Kit named "Juke 4WD".

The electric Leaf

Code: Not in the kit names
Good to know: BC has three kits, all BR: one for the original car, one for the second-generation car, and a separate "Leaf Plus FWD". The newer two say "Swift Front Only". If your later Leaf is a Plus, the Plus kit is the one to ask about.

All seven models side by side

Model Years What decides the kit BC Racing series
Juke 2010 to 2017 FWD or AWD; Bilstein kit type BR, DS, RM
Kicks 2018 to 2022 One kit BR
Rogue 2008 to 2020 Generation BR
Leaf 2010 to 2022 Generation; Plus or not BR
Versa and Note 2007 to 2019 Body (BC) BR
Cube 2009 to 2014 One kit from each brand BR
NV200 2009 to 2021 One kit BR

Before you buy: what Juke, Rogue, Leaf and Versa owners run into

These are everyday Nissans, and the owners who lower them are a small group. Feedback on coilovers for the Juke, Kicks, Rogue, Leaf and Cube is limited, both online and in the calls we take. The one problem we could confirm is a recall on first-generation Versa springs.

Front coil spring recall on the first Versa
Versa sedan 2007 to 2012, and 2012 Versa hatchback

Nissan recalled 2007 to 2012 Versa sedans in 2015 because front coil springs could crack from road salt corrosion and break, and a broken spring could damage the front tire. The recall expanded in 2017 to some 2012 hatchbacks. A used first generation Versa may still have recall springs or a past spring failure.

Before you install: Run the VIN for open recalls and inspect the front strut, spring perch and tire inner sidewall for damage when the old parts come off.

Leaf history

Questions on the Nismo, Versa Note, Leaf and Rogue

I have a Juke Nismo. Which Nissan Juke coilovers fit it?

All three Bilstein kits say "Including Nismo". BC kit names give only FWD or AWD, so ask us before choosing a BC kit.

Does my 2015 Versa Note take the sedan kit or the Note kit?

The Note takes BC's "Versa & Note FWD" kit for 2014 to 2019. The "Versa Sedan FWD" kit is for the sedan.

Can an electric Leaf take coilovers?

Yes. BC lists three Leaf kits, all BR: one for each generation and one for the Leaf Plus.

My Rogue is a 2011 FWD. Is there a kit for it?

We have no kit for it. BC's 2008 to 2013 Rogue kit is named AWD. Call us if you want to talk it over.

Which BC series can I get for these cars?

BR comes on every BC kit, DS and RM come on the Juke FWD kit, and RM comes on the Juke AWD kit.

What if my Rogue or Kicks is newer than the kits listed?

The Rogue kits stop at 2020 and the Kicks at 2022. Call us for anything newer.
