That looks spot on. What car do you exactly. I have a Jetta bkd so hoping for similar drop. Are they the 30mm pro? I can't find sportlines with just 30mm drop.
So its a golf tdi sport which is 15mm lower  from the factory than standard tdi height.

The eibachs sportlines are 40-45mm lower than standard so they are 30mm lower than sport height.

I think i have a bkc engine. Its a dsg so a bit heavier at the front too.

Eibach Sportlines have a different part number for Golfs with DSG to compensate the different weight. :wink:

VW racing springs. Was originally going for H&R but was recommended these and have been very happy with them; stance and ride quality just what I was after

Eibach pro will sit like a standard gti. There is a long thread on another mk5 site with loadsa pics,
