Sportline FTW.

I have them on a Mk5. 18" wheels. Ride is firm but still perfectly comfortable.

Of course lowering your car voids your warranty it's an aftermarket part. What dealer offered to supply and fit eibach lowering springs to your car?

I suspect it will be the vw designed springs not eibach's

Even so I still relate you to the faq section of vwr's website, their not official vw parts,  your dealer may be able to get them but if summat goes boom I doubt that the fatherland will care, if you can get the dealer to put it in writing however that's a different matter.

and remember that some dealers will be a lot more 'mod friendly' than others - was definitely the case with Vauxhall too.

most definetly, some Seat dealers used to do revo remaps and still maintain warranties, few and far between unfortunately
