Tiguan and Golf Coilovers

[Adam86]

By earlier sets are you referring to the 90mm drop you achieved in the thread I posted above? and after how long did it sag?
I’m looking for around 70-80mm drop, do you for see rubbing?

I noticed you did some comparisons between the golf/tig struts... even though the fronts looks pretty close in size, I think this is where we are likely to get issues... and I guess this was where you were rubbing?

Having said that.... I guess you can’t remember what the springs where (KG) that caused rubbing. Or do you know what KG springs you have now?

Depends, as ours is a true coil over the shock setup (with linear springs), it can not be compared to anything else sorry.

Just take it from me, if you use regular "golf" setup, It will be way wrong. Never tried it personally and wouldn't as its not designed for a Tiguan.

Thanks Guy,

No Problems Adam - Slammed looks are one thing, handling & comfort another
