Had some vogtland coilovers fitted the other day and then went for a 4 wheel alignment.
Have to say I’m very impressed with them!
Was recommended by a few on here to give them a go , so thanks for that !
The car had Bilstein b12 set up and while I was happy with how they drove I wanted them to sit just 10-15mm lower .
Very impressed with the damping on these ... im comparing them to the b12’s but also the ohlins I have on the S2k . They really are a good road going coilover kit . I actually think they ride / feel better than the b12’s .
I will say though that if you track your gti then these are way to soft in spring rate for any serious track action . I have eibach arb’s and I might set them to the harder setting to see if this affectivley gives me a higher spring rate ( less roll ) ...
I’ll have to go for another tweek to the alignment in a few months once they’ve settled fully .
Only issue is I’m getting a slight ( and I’m mean like 1-2mm ) of scrubbing on the wheel arch . Nothing I can’t fix though .
So all in all very happy chap with them .... I would have even been happy with paying more them to be honest . An absolute bargain for under £500 delivered !
