Ryan Tuerck is kicking off the 2025 motorsports season with a major partnership, teaming up with KW Automotive Group and its family of suspension brands for both competition and custom builds.
Tuerck will run ST Suspension XTA plus 3 coilovers on his Rain-X Toyota GR Corolla in the 2025 Formula Drift Championship, starting at the season opener in Long Beach, California, on April 4-5. Beyond competition, he will exclusively use KW Automotive products across his creative builds, marking a full-circle return to one of his earliest partners in professional racing.
鈥淚t feels like coming home,鈥� said Tuerck. 鈥淜W Suspensions was one of my first sponsors, and I鈥檓 excited to work with the entire KW Automotive family again across all my projects.鈥�
The collaboration extends beyond Formula Drift, with Tuerck and KW engineers developing custom suspension setups for several high-profile builds. These include the Mobil 1 heritage Stout project with a Belltech suspension, a 90s rally-inspired Toyota Celica running Reiger Rally Suspension, and the Formula Supra, which will be tested for Time Attack with a specialized KW race setup.
KW Automotive Group, the parent company of KW Suspensions, ST Suspensions, Belltech, and Reiger Suspension, provides high-performance suspension solutions for motorsports and street applications.
鈥淩yan鈥檚 combination of competitive drifting and innovative builds perfectly showcases the versatility of our suspension products,鈥� said Michael Belcher, Director of Sales and Marketing for KW Automotive North America.
With Tuerck鈥檚 proven talent and KW鈥檚 engineering expertise, this partnership is set to make waves both on and off the track in 2025.
