Eibach Pro Lowering Springs

[I wanted a GTi]

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

You had one job

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?

Got them from Larkspeed and their website quotes 30mm front and 20mm rear.

What colour were the springs? Have you ever scraped anywhere? I used to scrape on multi-stories all the time.

Looks well.
I had eibachs fitted on a previous car more for stance and show as it was used as a daily but also car shows and concourse.
They were 35mm drop all round and the ride and handling were spot on and not as firm as hard as I thought they were going to be I was more than happy with them

I did have to do the fender screw mod when I put the 19s on it as they rubbed on the front but had no issues on standard wheels. I've had a reasonable amount in the boot with no rubbing on the rear.

Funnily enough I had an astra VXR  with sportlines prior to the golf and the ride feels very similair.

How much firmer are the Eibach Pros compared to OEM (GTI) ?  im after a slight drop but not to much but i do want it firmer .. also im running 10mm and 15mm spacers , but im sure it will be ok ..  had 20mm on the rear but they rubbed !

[Gnasher]

They are quite firm - I have to go quite slow over speed bumps but everyday driving is fine (although I do keep a keener eye out for big bumps etc).

Oh and in reply to an earlier question, they're red.
