Tein Lowering springs ride comfort?

sportriderseattle · 01-18-2006, 01:18 AM

I've read several posts about lowering your MKIII's, however I'd like to know from anyone that has tried the Eibach Pro-Kit lowering springs and how it changed your ride? I've heard from one source that it makes it a very stiff ride and makes the car bounce as it drives down the road. (not soo good)

Your comments and opinions are appreciated.

Thanks Suprafans!

Eibach makes the Pro-Kit, Tein has the S-Tech springs. From what I've gathered on other vehicles, the Tein's are a mild spring with a slightly increased spring rate and offer a less aggressive drop compared to most other springs. I hear they work well with stock shocks, but on vehicles that are over 16 years old you may want to think about replacing or upgrading the shocks as well.

Definately go with Eibach ! Tein is too stiff !
You will be quite happy with the Eibach pro set ! works even better with Tokico HP struts.
Or if you have about $2000.... go with Megan Drift Coilovers !
Peace
