Show me your GTI on springs please
« on: April 29, 2013, 05:28:07 pm »
Getting my edition 30 next week looking to order some lowering springs for it, don't need coilovers not planning on tracking it.

Can you guys let me know the best springs to get and some pics to go along with it would be great :)

Thank you!

H&r -30mm are decent. I got them on my gti and the ride is pretty much the same if not better. 190 from gnj Motorsport. Or eibach sportlines

When I had it I used Blackfire Wet Diamomd Polish and Blackfire wax ( the name escapes me right now!), also used to like R222 wax on it too.

Eibachs look great on that White ED30, but on other cars they dont look quite that low. I had H&R's on mine which sat a little lower and looked spot on  :happy2:

I'm looking at getting some eibach sportlines very soon for my gti. I've never had a car lowered before so I just wanted to know if people find that as the car is lower that you have trouble with speed bumps?

Also surely if the car is lowered would you struggle to get the car up onto a hi curb without scraping the bottom on the bumper?
