Guys

Im looking to lower my new face lift VRS

Would appreciate if you could post pics of your lowered octavias and your spring/shocks fitted so i can get and idea of what route i should opt for

Cheers guys your time is appreciated

I don't have facelift....I use weitec springs 30 /30 , with 18 inch wheels.It looks ok .Here in my country we have a lot of bad roads

You obviously ain't see Britain

i havent taken any pics of my car but do have some from the ring

running AP coilovers dropped about 30mm ish. I can still out two fingers between the top of the wheel and the arch.

This one is coming over the crest sois a little higher than normal.

there are quite a few guys on here running eibachs, off the op of my head, vRSCarl, Shark_90 amongst quite a few others. i know harry_vRS has AP coilovers not sure how low he has is though. I wouldnt go any lower than what i have now tbh

Looks un-lowered to me!

All three of vRSy's photos are deceptive as the car is cornering and thus there is a degree of roll (not much mind with Eibach ARBs), which increases the wheelarch gap. It does show a 'lower' stance compared to OE though.

as said i can get two fingers between the wheel arch and top of the tyre. any lower than that and humops would be a no go. Ive grounded the underside of the car a few times when i have had a full car and boot

Needs more lower!

Here's my lowered Octy (not on a racetrack!). Eibachs and FSDs in this case:

Better, but still not low enough!

i think when stood still mine is about the same if not slightly lower than that, but not by much.

guys, hows the ride? I need a new set of shocks as standard ones are knackered, but Comfort is my first priority, Im currently on Eibach Pro Springs....

Koni FSDs required.

They will give you good firm sporty handling but with softer ride (they are designed to soak up all the little bumps). I have them on my vRS for precisely this purpose (to soften the ride over OE) and find that the ride in my vRS is more comfortable that the ride in my wife's Roomster. By all account of those that have them fitted they complement Eibach springs perfectly (I'm on OE springs).
