That's better What make of springs did you buy? Are they just shorter springs or coilovers??

origional vw lowering spring kit, 30mm drop all round, definately recommed as it rides so much better on the 17's now.

Plus its not a 4x4 anymore either

Do u have a part number for the lowering kit u got? And which site did u use to buy the kit from Germany?
Im looking to do the same to my car, 17" upgraded wheels are on the way so need to start lowering process. Your car looks much better with the kit, thanks for the help!

Part Number: 6R0 071 677 B

Can you please post up the link where you got these from? I've searched the web even with part no but can't really find anything? Are these not the VW Racing springs for the Polo GTI? Just wondered...

No they are different springs. The Polo GTI's lowering springs are 15mm than normal. You can buy the above part number from:

It's a reliable website and you won't find them cheaper elsewhere.

Hi heres the link to supplier in germany where i got them from

<http://shop.ahw-shop.de/vw-polo/vw-polo ... ungssaetze>

they are spot on kept me informed all the way through the process and i cant speak a word in german

http://shop.ahw-shop.de/vw-polo/vw-polo ... ungssaetze hope this link works.

hi, i dont speak german either! so i was wondering if you could help with the link, theres 3 seperate sets of springs you could buy, what ones did you buy? and would they all lower 30mm? sorry im clueless haha!

hi it all depends on the axel weight of your polo, this is available on the vw website or in the handbook, depending on the axel weight will depend on which springs to purchase.

There are 3 different springs available based on front axle weights: 830kg (part number: 6R0071677A), 860kg (part number: (6R0071677), and 960kg (part number: (6R0071677B). Rear axle weights are all 770kg.
