Originally posted by PDMJO View PostFor me, coming from a small Toyota Corolla hatchback, there was just far too much 'give' with the stock suspension for the Tiguan. Going over a speed bump felt like i was on a dinghy in the middle of the pacific - far too much vertical movement.
Changing up the springs firmed it all up and is now much more familiar. Emphasis on familiar, as comfort is specific to the individual.
However, by far the biggest incentive for me to change springs was for aesthetics. That's the biggest difference between the H&R and Eibach IMO. H&R springs are lower, whereas Eibach maintains the OEM look whilst providing enough of a height reduction.2019 MY19.5 Highline (R-Line, S&V, Sunroof)

Another plus is that it still gives me enough clearance to put a foot onto the back tyres to reach up to the roof racks. I don’t believe you get that with the H&R
the drop is very subtle

Originally posted by davman View PostDaz, so what has been your experience with the H&Rs? I note that Sparesbox has them for about $450 at the minute.
same experience as others regarding driveability and comfort. i like the stiffness in sport and driving in normal is much less floaty
sometimes i look at pics of others that have put the golf r springs and envy the wheel gap, but personally, i think the confidence that these are rated for the stock shocks overrides thatMY09 MKV Golf R32 | Black Pearl | Recaros | Sunroof | RNS510 | Purchased Feb '10 | Sold Jul '17
