RS Eibach lowering springs (family wagon)

[fred27]

It is not the spring alone that affects the ride. Important to remember that the spring needs to be matched to the shock. I'm using the Eibach pro (springs and shock kit bought from Eibach Australia). Lower, good handling and supple ride.

I used lower springs on stock shocks, the out come was hard and unstatisfactory

Here's what they look like.
(The blue one, btw)




I really do love how the colour matches perfectly.

The ride height certainly looks really good

I've got the eibachs (20 mm) on mine.
Been more than a yr now (I think....) and its all good. Ride is still comfortable, for 18 low profiles, and it looks much better than stock.
My little girl was 2 yrs old then - no complaints.
My wifey - no complaints. Infact, she didn't even notice the difference in ride!!
.....or the slightly lowered stance!!
And she drives the car 90% of the time!
Which is good - "subtle" right

This is hard to believe but my wife actually said to me it needs to be a bit lower, after she was driving alongside me on the freeway after getting the tint done a few weeks back.

I have read that these springs are offered in the UK from the Skoda dealer as an option. Does anyone know if the shocks are also changed or do they keep the stock shocks?

Looks good! How come my wagon does not have an antenna on the back? Should it have one or did you add it on for some reason???

Just the springs are changed. Keep in mind it's a new vehicle & Skoda dampers aren't a bad thing. If you have a few miles on them already (>60,000km) then you are better off doing the lot.

On most cars I'd bin the dampers around 40,000 - 50,000km but I managed 100,000km before they were showing their age.

I'd be interested in some eibach 20mm lower springs for my rs wagon, anyone want to do a group buy?

Just ring Eibach AUS. The prices are pretty dam cheap. Get in while he still has stock bought while the $$ was high
