I have sportlines on a GTI, the ride is great, not really any change from stock.
It has lost a little of its playfulness. I put this down to the fact that it has added a bit more camber on the back (I havent had an alignment done) - and so there is more rear grip. Good for speed but its not as entertaining as it was.
The drop aesthetically is great for my needs. I always like em low but atleast this is still practical.
