    Re: Harsh Ride

    The tires don't hit anything, the struits run out of travel, the Pro Kit is a 1.3" drop, there is no specific kit for a particular engine, they are all the same, I think my car turned out to be a 1.8ish drop. I take it easy over bumps, its bridges and train tracks that creep up on you.

        I had the eibach pro-kit with stock shocks, the ride (and ride height)was total crap. Switched up to the FK HighSports, rides beautifully now.

            I had the FK Kit in my old GTi, it was a good ride for the right price. I wish I had stuck with old faithful FK.

              The stock suspension on my TDI Sport is a nice compromise between a regular TDI and aftermarket parts. I really like the ride.....A little firmer but no bone jarring ride.
