Lowering Springs

[Chuds1]

Came across these and think I'm going to give them a try.

I think they might be slightly lower than the Pro Kit

Looks like they’re for a mk 5/6 golf

Yes you are spot on oryx3dr, thanks for that never noticed.

Now I can’t seem to find the Sportline kit for the MK7 only the pro-kit. Hmmm more research required.

Yes that’s the pro-kit, I’m trying to find the sportline kit. I’ve google images “mk7 golf Gti on eibach sportline”  and there are plenty of results but I can’t find a part number for the kit or a retailer that sells the kit.

Ahh I see, not sure I can help with that one I didn't realise there was a difference

Just a wee update.

I ended up going for the Vogtland lowering springs just to go for something different. I’m really pleased with the result, it’s a subtle drop and the ride difference is pretty much unchanged.

Here are some before and after pics. I did the install the other day and the after pics are taken straight after I finished so it might settle a bit more.
