VWR Racingline Springs
« on: 10 October 2017, 14:45 »
Hi all. Has anyone fitted the racing line springs to their mk7 gti? If so, what is the ride quality like as I am keen to retain this, but just drop the height a little. Any opinions welcome. Thanks, Craig

I have DCC fitted, but have noticed no difference in ride quality - just a nicer ride height!

They sound like just what I'm looking for then. Any pics at all?

Here's another picture for you, these were installed yesterday.



Yes car is filthy  :embarrassed:, but I am planning a complete ceramic new car protection detail this weekend.  :grin:

Ride is certainly a bit firmer but not overly so, probably about 10% firmer TBH, but then I did also have an 034 Motorsports dogbone engine mount installed at the same time.
