EIBACH -PRO STREET S (PSS65-85-014-05-22) for MK5 ED30 DSG
« on: February 04, 2013, 02:28:25 pm »
Hello everybody
I've removed my KWv2 coilovers and i'm trying to buy pss10 but i'm a little afraid about the confort.
I don't run on track and i not sure to need all set up option from the pss10 i want to keep a little bite of confort in slow speed cause we have bad roads, and no "boat feeling" anymore

i think about eibach pro street S coilovers cause it is cheaper than PSS and more confortable (google reviews)

Has someone run with the eibach pro street S ?

Thanks in advance for your help

Errrr, on the ED30 I had the Pro Street S coilovers and they were great........for about 11 months, then the dampers went.....twice!!

I ended up buying Bilstein PS10's and on the softest setting were more comfortable than the Eibachs and the car handled better too.

IMHO, don't get the Eibachs, get Bilsteins - either B14's or B16's. the B14's are a little harder than Eibachs, but still a much better system. :happy2:

Thank you Hurdy

I could have used pss 10 or new b14 to the same price.
Whats better ?

It will depend on how much hammer the PSS10's have had. For reference, mine were used on track as well as road and were just as good when I sold them on. B14's will be okay if you don't need the adjustability of the dampers. Basically the PSS10's go from soft as stock to hard as rock. They were so good I also bought PSS9's for the Polo GTI and then PSS10's again for the Golf R. :smiley:
