Eibach sportline or pro

[micaerin]

On my last service it was pointed out that the rear springs had signs of corrosion, so i thought the time had come to improve the springs. Not wanting to go much lower than stock, also funds wont stretch to coil overs. I see Eibach springs get a good write up, was wondering which to go for sportline or Pro. am i right in thinking they will give a 30mm drop, as i have 18" monzas, also dont want any problems with speed bumps. which should i go for? and any links to a good reputable seller. last question is this a DIY job or best left for a garage.
Thanks In Advance

Sportline's are lower than pro. From what iv seen, pro hardly lowers the car

me personally would go for h and r  better ride

My current GTI has Eibach pro which lowers the car only fractionally, a nice amount IMO without sacrificing ride etc..

My old edition 30 had VWR springs which are basically rebranded sportlines, although it sat lower and looked a bit better ride was sacrificed. Later this was upgraded to Bilstein b12 susp, best compromise IMO

Please let me know how you get on and which you go for.. Give me a full run down.. I think my springs might get rust soon......

My mate has h&r on his s3 and they don't seem as firm as the sportines

£100+ labour and you'll need full 4 wheel alignment done as well, around £80+. Prices vary a lot depending on who you use, how long they take and the wheel alignment company you use.

I've had Sportlines and H&R's with OEM shocks

The H&R's are better all round. Smoother on bobbly roads and less body roll in the fast corners so better grip and handling.
Potholes and bigger imperfections are felt a bit more but other than that the H&R'S win!
