Which shock absorbers polo 6r 1.2 tsi (105)

As the title says I'm looking for advise on which socks to buy. I recently lowered my polo on the eibach pro kit 25/30. The car is sat on 17 inch boavista alloys and the ride has become very bouncy on our rough road surfaces. I sometimes feel as though the car bottoms out on the current shocks.

I am only looking to do the fronts at this moment in time. Would this cause any issues?

2 sets iv looked at.

ST

Koni

Does anyone have any feedback on these kits? Would they solve the bounce problem?

Hey there! Bouncy rides are definitely no fun, especially with those 17-inch alloys. It sounds like you've done your research with the ST and Koni options, which is a great start. While it's tempting to just do the fronts, sometimes mixing and matching can lead to an uneven feel later on. Maybe try to envision it like navigating a tricky obstacle course; you want all your "wheels" to handle it consistently. Speaking of tricky, have you ever played Eggy Car?
