Was just wondering if coilovers for the mk5 gti and mk5 golf gt tdi are the same? As in width length etc.

Check the front axle weights. TDI is heavier

The Mk5 has 2 strut sizes/diameters (I'm sure both the gti and gttdi are 55mm though?), If you going for lower cost one's they will be all the same spring rating for all engines
(b.t.w I sell fk ak's in both 50 & 55mm versions)
