Default lowering issues?

Hey anyone on here have/had issues with lowering springs on their tt? Im goin with either neuspeed sport or race springs not sure yet but anyone know if there's major rubbing or camber issues with goin lower, the race springs would be almost 2" f/r so should I just stay with the sport springs?
Thnx -Rich

Rich, if you just get springs alone. In time your stock shocks will wear out, causing you to have to replace those aswell. Your Neuspeed Springs probably cost anywhere from 350 to 450 & when you have to change out your shocks. Thats gonna be more money out of pocket. My suggestion is to save the money and go with coilovers. You can get some very good coilovers for like 950 shipped.

But to answere your question. I am sitting very aggressively low, you can't even get a finger gap in between my tires and wheel well. Due to having Aadjustable lower control arms in the rear. My tire wear isn't bad at all & I have no tire rubbing.

When I bought my car it had the neuspeed springs in it and I didnt know about the camber and toe issues. Went through 3 sets of rear tires to 1 set of front. Got expensive quickly. I ended up going with coilovers and bought the eccentric bushing set (all four) and havent had an issue since.
