Hi guys, considering lowering my Gti, only looking at a smallish drop with some H&R Springs, anyone else used these? And are they any good? Also considering upgrading to 18" wheels if anyone has done this?

its quite bumpy cause the springs are so stiff, especially at the back, but its worth it and it handles alot better :)

I've got some H&R 35/55 springs that i just bought. But they are not fitted yet. Cant wait for it to look like the red GTI above.

I can't wait to do mine but concerned about the warranty, mainly if I have any DSG issues VW will "try" and blame the suspension

Nah, they wont. VW even sell lowering springs themselves.
