The main advantage of the kit increase in clearance KEIN for MINI Hatch, it lies in the fact that there are two reinforced plates where the top plate reinforces the suspension mount support (cup), it is a known problem MINI first generation where the base of the shock absorber support begins to rust before the other parts of the body, which are very often bent from corrosion. So this Lift kit not only increases ground clearance and improves the drivability of your car, but also gives more precise control and strengthens the suspension and car body - giving greater responsiveness when driving the car.

How the reinforced plate works you can see in the photo, the top plate has a wider area as opposed to the top of the mounting the regular support and covers most of the suspension mount support (cups) and strengthens it. For scale, a stamp was made where you can see the difference in area coverage.

Other model names (localization) in international markets:
In the United States market (USDM) - MINI Hardtop
In the United Kingdom market - MINI Hatch
In some markets was present as just the MINI One, in those years there was not yet a single positioning of the model and there were different marketing strategies... The diesel versions were called the MINI One D, the sportier versions were designated as the Mini Cooper, and the highest end version was called the MINI Cooper S.
The sports versions of the Cooper did not appear by accident, it is a credit to John Cooper and the Cooper Car Company. Later, a separate line of tuning options called John Cooper Works (JCW) and designated as Mini Cooper S Works will be created on their basis.

KEIN division has its own engineering department and are our direct partners, the RisingTuning team. All products created by KEIN are modeled in CAD where the factory drawings of the suspension are used to create the part, thus achieving maximum accuracy in measurements when creating the part. Before the prototype all stresses and loads are measured in simulation in order to identify the most reliable and correct design solutions taking into account the steel grade and the upcoming not only direct loads but also the natural environment - the correct alloy, steel thickness and its additives are selected to give the required properties to the product. After identifying the best solutions a prototype is created which undergoes physical tests and only after successful tests the finished serial products are created.

Rising Tuning company offers a convenient way to quickly and easily increase cross-country capability of your car - for this we recommend to buy spacers to increase ground clearance. Ground clearance is a characteristic, which largely determines the ability of the car to move on rough roads and unpaved roads, to drive over curbs and other obstacles. The lower the planting of the car, the less confident the driver feels off-road - by buying spacers, you can solve this problem.

Your car receives several undeniable advantages by installing spacers:
• Ground clearance is increased, thereby increasing off-road performance
• Increase the possible load of the car
• Spacers are also often used when installing mud rubber on off-road wheels
• Risk of mechanical damage to the engine housing and other engine compartment components is reduced
• Risk of scratches from bumpers and low-lying body parts being caught by bushes and grasses is minimized
• Save money on replacing weary coils by simply installing these affordable strut spacers and return car body to their original position.
• Alignment of the wheel mounting angles ( camber / convergence).

Advantages:
✅ After installing this extra-durable, easy-to-install and very affordable spacers all terrain features of your car will increase thanks to rised ground clearance and you will conquer the worst off-road.
✅ Sharp land bends, speed bumps, parking near curbs, maneuvering in the snow and on country roads, wherever before you had to be on the alert - no longer a problem with an additional 30mm under the bottom.
✅ Our spacers are often used when the stock springs lose their stiffness and spacers are the cheaper way to return the car to factory height than buying new springs.
✅ Spacers made of polyurethane and nylon have an additional damping effect, with them the ride will be even more pleasant. Whereas aluminum and steel spacers are essentially forever and will never need to be replaced.
✅ Also spacers are indispensable when installing larger diameter wheels.
