Eibach Pro Lowering Springs

[hog_hedge]

I have had a search throughout the whole Internet for pictures of a GTI or GTD with Eibach Pro springs fitted and have only found about 3 decent pictures.

Has anyone got them fitted to their car on here? If so can you please post a side view picture so I can see the difference between the drop of the front and rear?

Thanks.

Got sportlines if you fancy a piccie of them - at work now but could post later.

I'm having some VWR ones fitted on my R this Thursday.

What drop are you looking at on the Eibachs?

Yes please 🙂

15-20mm rear and 20-25mm front, I don't want a crazy drop but I want it to feel more planted. I had sportlines on my old VXR and they were really good springs.

I had Eibach Pro springs fitted to my R a few months ago, the drop is very subtle and less than the VWR springs.

Absolute am I would suggest they have dropped my R 10-12mm, doesn't even look lowered until compared to a stock car.

It's strange that the pro's for the R is the same drop front and rear but for the GTI it lowers the front more. That's the look I want to go for, OEM look but a touch stiffer and flatter in the twisties.

It has made for a great driving car, even the wife could notice the difference in a positive way.

In general from having Eibachs Pros fitted to three cars the drop is less than other opposition but have had a more compliant ride (I have always tended to prefer their ride to oem).

They are not as focused as others on track but your spine tends to remain in tact on the way there.

Apologies for the different perspectives/sizes/distance from car.

Remember these are Sportlines which are allegedly a bit lower, especially on the front.

That looks perfect. What's the manufacturer figures for the drop on sportlines? How's the ride compared to stock? Where did you buy them?
