H&R Springs

Artysta

Ready to race!
I am looking into getting my gti lowered. I've decided to go with H&R springs http://www.hrsprings.com/products/springs/ but am having a hard time deciding whether to go with Sport or Super Sport Springs. I will be running on my stock 18" Detroits. Does anyone have any suggestions or pics so I could compare. Will i get rubbing and a huge decrease in ride quality if I go with Super Sport? Any suggestions or tips are welcome :)

Im on the same boat man. There's a guy that just posted pic's of his GTI with super sports, I think its a bit to low for my taste. I going with H&R sports springs.

ive also checked out Eibach springs, they seem cheaper price wise... not sure which product is better, any suggestions?

I'm lowered on H&R sport with 18" wheels and stock shocks. So far ride is still smooth and no rubbing at all.

I know H&R make really good suspension for european cars thats why Im going with them. Eibach is also been in the game for a long time, I think youll be fine either way.

I've been fallowing you thread and it looks nice man. I asked you if you post some pictures of your car with the spacer in. I just wanna get a better idea of how it looks ones its done.:thumbsup:

Thank you. I had spacers in hopes they would tide me over from wanting new wheels. They looked great but I still wanted new wheels...lol.

So the spacers are off and the new wheels are on. I'm very happy with them and will post up pictures once I have them available.

The 2010 mk6 gti sits 0.9" lower then the MK5. The H&R sport springs lower the car approximately 1.2", does that mean its only going to be a .25" difference or is the car sitting 1.2" lower on top of the already .9" lower suspension. I hope im making sense :p
