Hi looking for some advice I have never lowered a car or done airride but dam the estate looks amazing so my question is I would love to do this but when I load the car up for going with 3 adults 2 kids and a boot full it sits on its arse if I where to change to lowering springs/airride would I still be able to have a full car or would that be out of the question ? 

That looks amazing

so that's on 40mm springs and fully loaded did u have any issues or was everything fine no rub ect but al have a look at 40mm 🙂

This is my full car on H&R 40mm springs. 2 kids. Snowboarding gear and the other 2 is all the camping gear.

i know when I was looking for springs for my new car (superb sportline) eibach do a set that have adjustable height rears. They were 50mm standard fronts and then from 25-50mm rear. They would work well but the 50mm is low. That’ll make it 35mm lower than vrs standard

Was spot on mate. Never had any rubbing issues and was on 12mm spacers too. Ride was still pretty good and I think the one with the bikes on I hit the bump stops on the back once over a big speed hump. Did about 80k miles with the H&R on and never needed bushes shocks or drop links either. 

The new superb has the H&R on now too. 

Pics below are the vrs not loaded and then the new superb on the H&R too

 

Looks lush man well my mind has been made up Haha looks like am in for a sleepless night of looking around

Thank you 🙂

Think the H&R part number is 28833-4. Just check and make sure that the front and rear axle weights match the specs of the springs 😉

Think they are lower at the front than the back on the 4wd so that might suit you even better. 

 

Yeh it looks a lot lower then my last my13 that was 2wd an had loads of fun with it but dam this things a beast Haha

Yea I thought I remembered something like that what you need is the spec for all the springs and then order them separate by part number and not as a kit. I’ll have a look see if I have still got it 

H&R spacers and -40mm springs...
