    aftermarket springs w/ 19" wheels pics please

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I have an 05' 1.8T USP and considering lowering the car. I'm leaning towards a set of coilovers probably Stasis Street Sport (unless recommended something else). I'm also considering springs since my USP shocks are like brand new. With today's economy, a savings of $800+ goes along way.

    I just wanted to see if anyone out there has any pictures with just aftermarket springs and running on 19" wheels. Keep in mine, I have the sports suspension so it's already about 1" lowered. Not sure if springs will drop my car to the height I want, but I'm looking for another 1" drop all around to tuck the tires with no finger gap from tire to fender.

    thanks.

    From all the posts about this I think you have to go with race springs in order to achieve a lower stance than that you already have with the stock sport suspension. If you search lowering springs I'm sure you'll find tons of threads on this topic with pics.. good luck

    you need more than 1" drop to have no gaps. springs with stock shocks will kill your shocks in less than a year.. My bro mismatched his shocks with after market springs and his suspension got squishy. (this was on a brand new GTI, but close enough). invest in shock/strut combo or coils

    USP shocks and springs are no different than the normal sport package so being USP really makes no difference

    Thanks for the feedbacks guys, but all I asked for was pics of aftermarket springs on 19" wheels since that's my set up. I guess coils it is than because I want it tucked like my 3 series, especially in the rear.
