Will these be OK?

Featured Replies

My friend is offering me nearly new Eibach 30mm springs from his Fabia 1.9 TDi for my vRS. I've searched forums and they should fit, but front will be lower than rear. Does anyone fit these? How much lower is front? Any problems with these springs? Price for me is very very cheap so I would like to take them, but I do not want to end up with problems. And if front is too low (I do not mind if its just little bit), can I use anything to rise it? Thanks. Filip

Hello

No it wont be too low

It will bnot be low enough

It is because the vRS is lower to start with , so the lowering on vRS springs will not be as much

Maybe something like 15mm ish

Just as a note,

Are the standard TDi springs not just rated to 900kgs ?

As the vRS ones are supposed to be rated to 960kg's

They will still fit, but you wont get the benefit of them if they are suited to a lighter car.

What benefits are you talking about? Handling or comfort? Also if they are designed for lighter car, they should drop more than 30mm. Am I right?

Benefits being both handling and comfort.

You would be fitting something thats not entirely designed for your car.

And yes, they may go lower than 30mm because of the extra weight.

Not an ideal way to do it though.
