Re: Coilovers or Springs??

here are some pics of the FK 35/40 kit, it dropped a fair bit lower than 35/40 IMO, I don't have exact measurements but its about 1 finger gap all around. I probably could have gone 55/40 now that I think of it but the whole sway bar issue was bugging me, plus I have to drive on Saskatoon roads for 8 months of the year and having a little extra height doesn't hurt I guess.

Again, its 1 finger gap or less all around, tucks like crazy with 2 people seated in the rear but still doesn't rub!!

Re: Coilovers or Springs??

Anybody runnin' the H&R kit wanna post some pics? Am I retarded, or why can't I find the 55/40 FK kit for a MKIV Jetta on the FK site? It only has the 35/40 kit listed; I only see 55/40 for the older Jets. I did the calc's and there isn't much diff. between the amount (front and back) of lowering given by the FK's when compared to the H&R (FK: 2.2" front and 1.6" rear....H&R: 2.0" front and 1.7" rear). Seein' this, I most likely will go with the less-expensive FK.
