So on awetuning.com they have I think the H&R race springs and sport springs. I know they lower your car but does it stiffen it up at all? I don't think I would have money for new shocks just springs. Any input here? Or other ideas on springs?

 

The ride will be stiffer with lowering springs. That's about all I know.

 

obviously the ride will be stiffer, you can hold out on new shocks and buy some new one's anytime you want

 

Okay good. I hate this sedan suspension. Owning a mini Cooper for a 2nd car just makes it feel worse lol.

 

haha my gti is pretty much a mini cooper well its in the same class,,,, does your car have the factory sport suspension?

H&R are the best springs i know of for the 1.8 ebach's ride very rough and stiff but handle very well and tein spring are great too

 

check out neuspeed race/sport springs as well. they are cheaper than H&R and give you the same amount of low

 

$224 for the set of race spring H&R

Just understand that you will blow your shocks if you put on lowering springs...they aren't meant for those springs and will give out. Save your duckets and just get a kit...honestly.

 

Okay I will buy a whole kit. And Andrew I have the factory suspension on my mini. It handles great. My brother has a 1.8t gti stock. But it def handles better. But a gti is good.
