oldmandon 1 Posted December 17, 2011 Report Share Posted December 17, 2011 They always sit higher for a short while after they have been disturbed,they have to settle to their ride height, usually after a short drive. Link to post Share on other sites

Once youve done the other side im sure you will. Link to post Share on other sites
rsweeney 40 Posted December 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2011 just fitted other side and feels alot stiffer , not really lowered though Link to post Share on other sites
Vw_owner 1 Posted December 17, 2011 Report Share Posted December 17, 2011 let them bed in, im guessing you brought lowering springs? thats the only downside with them is getting the exact ones for the height you want, if you want to play around with ride height you realy should get adjustable coilovers then you can play with the height to what you want Link to post Share on other sites
