Spring Wisdom needed

[brat_burner]

I've had my 13 GTI for about a month now. I plan on doing a slight spring drop, most likely Eibach Pro kit... Now I have some rear rake going on and I'm not sure how common that is. Or possibly the previous owner had the car loaded down causing some coil sag. Should I go in with the larger coil pad in the rear first....???? Or just throw them in and see how it looks. I assume it's not too bad if I had to redo the rear springs only.

I was just looking into this the other day out of curiosity. Turns out these will fix you right up.

Yes I saw these. I wondered if this rake was common with pretty much every car.

The wheel gap, on a stock car, is larger in the front than the rear & normal....if that's what you're asking

2009 as well...just to show

With the Eibach Pro-Kit though, I'd probably add the rear spring pad. It's not going to make a huge difference anyways but should make sure you don't have any reverse rake

Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks!
