I've been looking at getting some springs for my 2023 vRS Diesel 4x4 hatchback. Choice is limited to Racing Line or H&R for this spec, never used either before, always had Eibach on previous cars. Is there much difference in quality? The Racing Line springs are £50 cheaper which is a pull!

 

I'm not really bothered about lowering it, I just want a slightly firmer set up (car has passive, non-DCC suspension). Drove back from Edinburgh last weekend and over the North Yorks. Moors this weekend, it really pitched and rolled on some of the road surfaces - been driving an i30N for the last four years so got used to this!

 

I don't like the 'slammed' look, so leaning towards the Racing Line as it's less of a drop, but they aren't a brand I've used before. I'll probably also get some wheel spacers at the same time.

I used H&R springs on my Superb and I was very impressed. Firmed things up a little bit but just enough to notice a decent improvement

H&R are really good, i did have a 3 year old one snap, heres the rear no rub either over rough road, im running 19s" with 20mm spacers rear and 15m spacers front

You're right to question Racingline but keep an open mind; they used to be part of VWUK involved in the motorsport side, which gives them credence. Buuut, there are plenty of suspension specialist companies out there not to snub - H&R, Koni, Bilstein, KW, Ohlins etc. etc.

 

Forums are the best place to get the most adequate reviews - have a look in the model-specific forums too
