Hi Guys,

I have been thinking of changing the suspension on my gti for awhile now. There are so many different makes and types I am a little overwhelmed.

I do about 25k a year so I am looking for the most comfortable option really. I have heard good things about the H&R Cup Kits but what other bands prices should
I be looking at?

I am looking for a 40mm drop.

Thank you,

H&R cup kit is a great choice. I had that on my GTI and it was great - perfect 35-45mm drop and comfy as! Definately recommend it.

Good stuff.

Have you got 15" wheels or the 16" in that photo?

Cheers,

On my polo, they are 16 RX2s (1st pic left 2nd pic right). On dads they are 15 RX2s (1st pic right 2nd pic left)

Thanks for help. I will go for the H&R kit then and I will look out the 16" because they fill the arches better.

Cheers,
