Eibach front Springs

Recommended Posts

Hi, 

 

I’d like to keep my car as original as possible but there’s a few small mods I’d like to carry out, one of which a more lowered look. 
 

can I just go ahead and add Eibach -30mm on the front and leave the rear as-is, or should i make an adjustment to the rear too?

 

cheers

Adjust rear to suit aswell. Budget in rebuild of the axle if you have no history of beam being apart in a while. If you're local to North Wales, then axle lowering is a service I can offer if you are not confident yourself

Hi,

 

On my GT model I have the 30mm lowering springs at the front and a standard height at the rear with a refurbished rear axle and it looks good. I think the cars were always a little bit lower at the rear anyway so to my eye it balances it out a bit.

 

Cheers

Cheers. Yes I’ve seen people just doing the front and that’s what I’m thinking. Thanks pal.

Cheers, I’m thinking just doing the front. I’ve been given a recommendation for someone else in North Wales that does Axles fit if / when I need it.

I’ve just realised I think it’s actually you after checking your profile just now (haha!) I thought your name was Jordan from your display name. 
 

My good pal John from Chester said you’ll be the only person I should need, you’ve done work on his grey GTI6.

Yeah I think his brother Ben was interested in your PUG estate recently. 
 

I’ll get in touch Early 2021 regarding lowering if okay? Cheers, Steve
