If it's already lowered 10mm then getting 40mm springs would take it to 50mm I imagine?

GTi is actually 15mm lower, so a 60 drop would be 75. I noticed this when I parked up at E38 in 2006.

why not try kam racing for your whatever suspension you decide to go for - www.kam-racing.com. I went for Bilstein B8 Spring Shocks from them, and had already bought Eibach Pro Springs from Demon Tweeks. I'd probably buy the lot from Kam Racing if doing again since it'd probably have worked out cheaper. They sell coil-overs as well, but I only wanted to lower the car.
