Gadget-Master 2 Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 I know this might be a dumb question to the mechanically minded:Can a full set of lowering springs (50mm front and 45mm rear) be fitted to a Golf VR6's stock suspension? If so, will there be any issues to the handling ETC? Link to post Share on other sites
Devildub_06 0 Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 I will probably be shouted down for this, but I would recommend that any drop over 40mm should have shorter shocks absorbers to accompany them. There is always a greater risk of standard shock absorbers internally reaching their maximum travel, and therefore prematurely expiring as a result. I know it's greater expense but personally while it was all apart, i'd fit new shock absorbers too as old shock absorbers are never going to have the same efficiency as new ones, and that's where your handling will suffer.
