H&R vs eibach lowering springs - opinions
« on: February 02, 2014, 10:48:20 am »
Remember seeing a while back H&R did a spring kit for GTI which was -40mm ?
But I can only find -30mm springs now.
Am I wrong about -40mm H&Rs

Where is the best place to get H&R springs ?

What you guys opinions between H&R vs eibach sport lines

Thanks in advance.

40mm springs are probably for normal height golfs as the gti is already a little lower.

So the 30mm and 40mm ones lower the same amount

H&R's are 35mm and look just right IMHO.  :happy2:

Apex do a 40mm lowing spring but it will be a firmer ride
