Polo GTI 6R H&R Lowering Spring Problems

Featured Replies

Hi,

Fitted some H & R lowering springs to my 2011 polo gti, looks just perfect, Problem is the ride is terrible and the car bounces a lot over roads my other cars glide over.

Does anyone have any experience of using these, Really pissed off that H & R recommend these for the car and they are this poor.

Options i am looking at :

Remove the H & R's and fit Eibach pro-kit springs, can get a set for £110, only lower the GTI 15mm at the front / 20mm at the rear, past experience on my 6n2 gti with eibachs is they are fine.

Remove the H & R's and Fit vw motorsport lowering springs, lowers car by 20-30mm, can get a set for £210, blurb says they have been calibrated to work with the std shocks, so should be fine, apparently they are made by Eibach.

Keep the H & R's and fit Koni shocks, looks like they will costs upwards of £500, The koni kit uses the same H & R springs i have, But wouldn't want to spend the money to find out they are not very good.


What should i do.


Thanks for looking / helping
