Lowering Mk1 Leon FR+ 1.9TDi

[D4N BK]

Morning,

considering buying the H&R 50mm lowering springs from your site for my Leon but just wanted a bit of advise before i do.
Is 50mm a bit extreme? Should i be buying anything with it so it all fits correctly? Is there a different drop height you would think is better suited?

Its on the standard wheels, 17" version of the LCR rims.

Cheers for the help, im new to this. :)

Afternoon Dan,

The only thing I'd say would be maybe think about buying a full springs and shocks kit as 50mm is quite a big drop on the standard shocks.

Ah right ok, little out of my price range to be honest.

What about maybe 40mm on the Weitec or KW springs? Still too much?
If not, which would be the better buy do you think? KW or Weitec?

Thanks again.

Depending on the mileage you should be ok and if needed you could always change your dampers at a later date.

The KW's are a little better quality but both are very similar springs.
