        Hey mate, mines currently sitting on a set of Eibach 25/30mm pro-kit springs.

            7hrs - I'd question their ability.

            I'd never done a Polo before and it took the owner (of the Polo) and myself 4 hours working on my driveway & with a limited tool kit. The rears are ridiculously easy

              It wasnt their ability to install but the wrong springs (golf) was sent to them by the the supplier. So there was a 3hr wait on correct springs to be delivered

                That makes more sense

                  Thanks mate. How high do you think the body is off the top of the tyre? 25mm off the front and 40mm at the back? I got the 66tsi and not sure whether the eibachs will do enough.Click image for larger version

                    You are better off measuring from the middle of the wheel to the guard. It takes any variations in tyre diameter out of the equation

                      this is my gti with the eibachs after 3000km and a full tank of fuel

                      its not hugely different to stock by any means, but then my car is almost always full so i couldnt have it scraping its ass

                        Hey dude, the 25/30 are the only springs available for our TSI's in the Eibach catalogue. I suggest you either go for coil overs or find another brand that would better cater for you

                        For reference:

                        Mine measures 330mm front and 335mm rear. Arch to centre hub. After around 1000kms
