B12's fitted

[kadvr6]

I installed a set of Bilstein B12's after I won them on ebay for a very very good price http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/121187306284?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649

They have been on the car for a week but don't seem to have lowered the car at all, how long should they take to settle?? I have done approx 300 miles in that week also.

And here is how my skoda is sitting after a week with them on.

Cheers

Should drop a bit more than that I would say

[GTI-Ross]

looks higher than standard.

I thought they were about 650 quid???

Yeah you got a great deal there buddy

Yeah you got a great deal there buddy 

Well sort of.... The don't look right, as the car sits high!

[fab5freddy]

    Umm should have read it properly  

Yeah mate that's a bit on the high side  

Might explain why they moved to H&R's and then Eibach's

Any pictures of the actual springs?

[kadvr6]

here is the only pic I got of the actual kit I fitted, when it stops raining I will get a better pic of the actual springs



if it does not settle down im thinking about fitting some H&R 50mm drop springs.

The seller has a couple more sets for cheap too. I'll keep an eye on them, but I don't think they will lower the GTi any more than standard. Unless I am mistaken?

is it just the springs that will drop the height?

[rich83]

is it just the springs that will drop the height?

Yes

I will be getting my kit fitted this friday, but I'm using some eibach sport line springs. Got the kit from the same guy as you, just for the dampers really! 

[kadvr6]

can you measure the drop before and after please mate

[micaerin]

Will do, did you get yours sorted in the end?
