The ride is definetly stiffer than stock but by only a touch. I have come from a Corsa VXR on Eibach Sportlines so it still feels like I'm driving on a cloud in comparison.

I'm running 19's without DCC and the ride is perfect for me.

Yep I have had the pro kit fitted. I have a 140 mile drive today so I'll report back later on how they did.

Interested to hear how you got on with your drive on the new springs ?

I was really impressed with them, the car was definitely flatter in the corners and felt much more planted. Coming from a VXR go cart I thought the standard GTI springs had too much body roll for a sporty car. They are firmer but ride just as good as stock. When are yours coming?

When I ordered the garage said there was no stock in the UK so they had to order direct from Germany. I know the feeling being away at work all week, it's a pain to only have the weekend to sort things out. Are you in the forces by any chance?
