Lows for the r line 6r

Post by helloimjammie »

Hey guys and girls
Just wondered if anyone has lowered a polo r line? I don't want a full on slammed drop just want to see how much difference the 30mm eibach springs make? And if there are any springs that get it lower?

Not wanting to do a lot to my rline whenni get it now but lowering the tractor height is a must imo

Cheers people

Jamie

I have an R Line, lowered on eibach's. Ride quality is barely affected and handles much better (especially if you can grab a copy of VCDS and tweak your electronic diff to strong! 8) ), have a look on my thread for pics. Although I don't think its the best example pictures. If you want any side on's i'll gladly get one for you. :D

EDIT: I remember reading somewhere that there was problems with leaking shocks on the lower 50mm springs? anyone confirm this?

I was hoping to get a copy of VCDS so that could be possible! Have you got a link to your thread mate?:-)
