    Ground Control suspension

    Has anyone heard of Ground Control? I found out that they have a camber kit and also an adjustable kit for MQB platform.

    Looking for feedback as they also use Eibach springs like MSS kits does.

    Pricing is very competitive and quality looks very good so I'm really considering these.

    Attached pictures that they sent to me:

    I have emailed them to confirm if the rears are adjustable. I assume they are as their mk5 / mk6 sets are adjustable.

    Well, from what I have heard in the past...GC isn't a bad company. The price difference could easily be in the fact that the front of the kit you show is a "rebuild" if the factory strut. If the other kit is a full replacement strut, that easily makes up for the difference in cost. Not only that, I would go for the full strut rather than building my own.

    Note these are just height adjustable springs.

    MSS kit also sells height adjustable springs only without dampers. The purpose of this is when people want to use stock dampers like magnetic ride.

    They have not posted the springs yet but said will be posting sometime this week.

    They priced their camber plate plus adjustable springs for about the price of the MSS adjustable springs alone.

    that's what I am looking at. I was wondering when someone else besides mss was going to make these. mss is just outrageous for their prices. its the same spring brand "eibach". with GC I know we can even ask for specific spring rates with out any hastle but with mss there is some sort of issue. also with their three levels the prices go higher, which is above $1k. for GC the price is the same you just choose what you want. that's with what they have always done in the past. and we don't need to wait like another few more months. I assume GC is available in less than a month.

    Can't go wrong with GC. They know their stuff and put together custom kits for your needs if you so desire.
