    H&R Sport Springs.
    Front 1.4" Lower Rear 1.5" Lower
    Stock Shocks
    Handles good, no body roll.
    I can feel the bumps more.
    Will upgrade shocks when they wear out, looking at Koni's.

    1998 Golf GL 2.slow

    Eibach pro spring kit on standard shocks, 38mm drop all round.

    Sits flat on the road i.e dual lane roundabouts at well over the speed limit and in the lines, and works well with my nice silverstone 205/45/16W tires.
    I'm happy

    Cut springs! That hurts.

    Just recently installed:

    K-Sports fully adjustable Coilovers all round
    Back dropped as low as it will go
    Front to match

    Up next: Rear sway bar

    Awsome ride and the handling is mental!

    Polo GTI: Bilstein PSS9's - + 30lb of extra spring rate - rest is stock

    Golf GTI MKV - Sach's racing 20 way adjustable coilovers - rest is standard

    Audi TT - Ohlins motorsport suspension, 380 lb springs, custom camber plates (capable of 5 deg neg camber) - stock swaybars, H&R adjustable rear control arms.

    Porsche Cayman S: Sach's Racing Coilovers, Mantis Sport Camber plates, 997 GT3 front bar, Tarret adjustable rear sway bar, tarret sway bar links.

    All of them corner pretty well

    How much did that cost you and where did you get it from? Sounds like sorta suspension i need for my driving

    I'm looking at getting some H&R race springs from the US.... i think it'll cost about $260 american though (2" drop at front, 1.75 rear)... and KYB shocks - not expensive.

    Edit: after reading other forums, and i think eibach springs are over $500 a set.... I think i'ma go with KYB shocks and Whiteline springs. Sounds like they're about 40mm lower, and eliminate "floating" feeling when driving and body roll can't wait...
