What springs?

[ChrisLindsay]

Hopefully got my first VAG sorted with a Leon Cupra.

Sourced some wheels I want, 19" 8.5 all round

Ideally want to lower the car top of tyres all round.

Are there any springs outs there that will do it on a relatively thin tyre (not stupidly stretched) without me having to go coilovers?

Was thinking possibly H&R or Eibach Sportline.

Any help would be great.

H&R are a great spring i have them on my new audi s3 the lower the car and dont affect the ride unlike most coilovers do i have never used Eibach Sportline so cant really comment on them

H&R deffo!

Got em on mine and there triffic!

give a nice even drop all round with perfick ride height too imho!

Pretty sure though that with 8.5 x 19's you might have to start modding the arches to ge them to fit and clear!!

Cila did with his iirc as i wanted the same wheels he has on, but i wasn't prepared to start hacking/chopping and bending to get clearance!

Specs are 19" 8.5 all round ET35 I believe
5x112
Tyres - 215/35/19

Let me know your thoughts on the H&R's

Thanks alot

The H&R 40mm kit and EIbach Sportline 50mm/35mm kit tend to be the most popular options.

Which woul do the job ... Top of the tyres?

 

[DamianPM]

On the Cupra you'd get about 30mm front and rear from the H&R and about 35mm front and 20mm rear from the Eibach Sportlines so it'll depend if you want a level stance or more nose down?

[ChrisLindsay]

Ideally stance as it would be top of the tyres all round.

Could H&R do the job? Ideally very minimal or else zero tyre to arch gap.

 

[DamianPM]

The only way you'll get zero gap is with coilovers.

There's not much of a gap with the H&R's imo, i certainly wouldn't want it any lower!
