034Motorsport Street Density Strut Mounts

If you're looking to elevate your driving experience in your Volkswagen or Audi MQB or MQB EVO model, then the 034Motorsport Street Density Strut Mounts are a must-have upgrade. Crafted from high-quality 60 and 70 durometer rubber, these mounts are designed to be 30% to 50% stiffer than factory options, providing enhanced performance and longevity.

Why Upgrade to Street Density Strut Mounts?

The Street Density Strut Mounts are fully vulcanized to the center cups, ensuring a robust connection that significantly extends their lifespan and performance compared to stock mounts. The redesigned steel strut mount bodies can handle the added stresses from spirited driving, resulting in a marked reduction in strut mount deflection. Say goodbye to that annoying "squeaking" sound often heard with stock mounts, especially when paired with coilover suspensions. While these mounts may introduce a slight increase in noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH), it’s a small trade-off for the improved handling and steering response.

Choosing the Right Durometer

When selecting your strut mount, consider your driving style:

• 60 Durometer: Ideal for those seeking an OEM+ upgrade. Offers enhanced performance without sacrificing comfort, with only a slight increase in NVH.
• 70 Durometer: Perfect for performance enthusiasts. Provides the best handling characteristics while introducing some NVH, further reducing deflection under heavy loads.

Technical Insights

While the factory strut mounts on the Volkswagen/Audi MkVII and 8V/8S chassis are a step up from previous generations, they can still fall short when paired with performance dampers or coilovers. Many owners report a bothersome "squeaking" noise that occurs during low-speed maneuvers, like pulling out of driveways or traversing speed bumps. This is due to the low durometer rubber in the factory mounts, which allows for excessive movement. The 034Motorsport Street Density Strut Mounts are engineered specifically to eliminate this issue and enhance your vehicle's suspension performance.
