Im looking into buying a set of these...but before i do im planning running the springs on my standard shocks will this be fine?

Also states the springs lowers the GTI by 50mm is this an equal 50/50 drop as iv recently had apex 60mm springs fitted and its actually a 60/40 drop and was hoping to get an even 60/60 drop

So for those who have the sportlines fitted to their GTI do yous get an equal 50/50 drop and where is the cheapest place to get them from?

Any help appreciated cheers

Sportline springs information from the Eibach website, if anywhere is listing them as a 50mm drop for the 6n2 Gti they are incorrect:

Polo (6N II)
1.0, 1.4, 1.6 with manual gear box 10.99 - 11.01
E20-85-004-02-22

21-85-004-02-VA (front springs)
21-85-004-02-HA (rear springs)

VA 45-50 (front axle lowering approx)
HA 30 (rear axle lowering approx)

front axle weight 830 kg rear axle weight 780 kg


The sportline kit uses the same springs as in the Eibach Pro-kit, it is only the front springs in the Sportline kit which are lower, and therefore a different part number.
