Default Should I Keep The Neuspeed Race??...

...or go to H&R Race?? I like my current setup, but it's not as low as I expected it to be - and there's just something about slammed B5s that turns me on. Seems to me that H&R tend to be a little lower, but that's just my opinion from what I've seen. Just looking for some second opinions on this.

Here's what I'm running now...











Neuspeed Race Springs / Bilstein Sport Shocks (non-adjustable, to my knowledge), and 17" Enkei J10.

Thanks in advance for any input.

H&R race with bilstein shocks, but on 18in flik artics

another H&R race with bilstein's and 18x8.5 wheels




H&R race with adjustable bilstein's and 19in. wheels





In the end it's your own decision

That is sexy as hell.

I think I'm going to change over to H&R, but I'm still not positive. Some of those pictures don't really do it justice - it's still lower than stock sport - but new springs will probably be one of my 'projects' this summer.

H&R Race springs are more aggresive -DA-than the Sport springs. From what I understand from a fellow GTI buddy the ride feel is really stiff and the drop is much more noticable, which is what you are looking for. That's right I said stiff. Then again he is driving a RS4 now with the lambo brake package...

On stock wheels:

see you are exactly where I want to be sitting I think, but I don't want to do it with stock shocks.

I run H&R Race springs on stock shocks and have done for nearly 2 years and it sits like 20mm lower than stock.
