Which shock absorbers polo 6r 1.2 tsi (105)

Post by winky666 »

As the title says I'm looking for advise on which socks to buy. I recently lowered my polo on the eibach pro kit 25/30. The car is sat on 17 inch boavista alloys and the ride has become very bouncy on our rough road surfaces. I sometimes feel as though the car bottoms out on the current shocks.

I am only looking to do the fronts at this moment in time. Would this cause any issues?

2 sets iv looked at.

Koni

Does anyone have any feedback on these kits? Would they solve the bounce problem?

Dude, I totally get the bouncy ride issue after lowering! My old car felt like a bobblehead on uneven roads. For the Polo, I'd lean towards Koni for better dampening, especially if you're hitting "bottom out" territory. Just doing the fronts should be fine for now, but eventually matching the rears would give you a more balanced feel. Hope you sort it out and can enjoy your Pokerogue !
