Proudly Made In The USA featuring updated front spring design

One of the most frequent complaints that we hear from customers after installing lowering springs is the poor ride quality. On the MQB platform, progressive lowering springs will typically create a "bouncy" scenario where the rear of the car will tend to become uncomfortable and unpredictable on rough roads. Our fix for this has usually been to add stiffer rear shocks, which will limit the issue. But for customers with magnetic suspension, this is a more intensive process and requires removing an expensive factory feature.

Taking our experience on the MQB platform, along with testing on our in-house S3 and MK7 GTI, we have developed what we feel is the best lowering spring option for those wishing to utilize factory dampers. Using a linear design (similar to OEM) with unique spring rates, our lowering springs are properly matched to the factory dampers, ensuring a ride quality that is slightly stiffer than stock, but predictable in nature. A progressive spring will typically be softer at light loads, then dramatically stiffen as compression increases. In our experience on the MQB platform, this makes it very hard to match dampening, and creates the bouncy feeling over light bumps.

Our linear design has a consistent rate as the spring sees higher load. So on light bumps, it will allow the chassis to follow the road well (minimizing the bouncy feeling), while under heavy compression it will stiffen to prevent bottoming out. In our experience, this creates a much better overall ride quality.
