[MagyarCC]

Nice find on the H&R's. Checked it though, they get you on the shipping $40...
But either way $250 or so is what these are gonig for looks like. Anyone know if installing these voids any of the warranty?

[Kryscanland]

shipping is only 27$...not bad

And warranty might be void only if u break your suspension and they find out it is not stock.

^pics of springs? why bother....wait, are they red or black?!

MagyarCC, I installed the springs myself over the weekend and it was a big PITA. Not so much the rear (there is only one bolt that you need to remove) but the fronts took like 5-6 hours. I mean if you have all the tools than it would be much easier, because at times I had to use some creative engineering If you have the time and patients to do it, than its worth it.

So I saw a combo on one of these posts that sounds like what I was planning on - 19x8.5 235/XX front 19x9.5 rear with 245/35 tires with a front/rear offset of 35. Going to drop with Neuspeed springs. what would be the best sidewall for the fronts? Any thoughts would be helpful. This thread has been very informative

[Veedubin02]

35, springs aren't gong to drop you enough to rub and a 35 series tire with that width will keep the overall diameter close to stock diameter.

Will I have any problems with my VR6 Sport w/ 18" Interlagos wheels with 235/40/18R tires if I decide to go with the H&R Sport springs??

[Veedubin02]

No you should be fine.

I had the same setup and it was perfectly fine. H&R Springs are a two plus finger gap in between the tire and the car. I currently have H&R Coilovers which lowers a lot more and still fine.

[cwwiii]

Thanks guys. I just need that front end sitting lower. I have to save up some dough and maybe I'll go with coilovers. I don't know what to do lol.

MRRs may make a comeback this weekend

[crazywayne311]

why are they going to make a comeback?!

[Veedubin02]

I think I like them better than the MB reps, if they fit they stay, I am just worried about the 35mm offset with the 8.5inch wide wheels. Right now I am running same width but 45mm offset.

[crazywayne311]

have them milled down a bit

[Veedubin02]

If they dont fit I probably will.

[crazywayne311]

see we're on the same track

w/o spacers they will fit no problem... well with 225's.

I ran 18X8.5 ET35 AMG wheels on my MkV GLI and didn't rub with 225s.

[Veedubin02]

How low was your GLI?

thats what i'm wondering...i was running H&R coils on my GLI with 215/40/18 on 18x8 et36 and didnt rub...and i was CLOSE

i29gtaylor, car looks good man. still a little on the high side for those wheels bro

euro spec suspension. so, like h&r sports. not low. two finger gap?

[Veedubin02]

Oh, I am def lower than that, thats why i was worried, they fit great though. Could use a little more camber in the rear, heck maybe even a little in the front.
