Ready to race!
Recently bought B4 bilsteins and H&R Sport Springs.
Previously had B8 bilsteins and super sport springs before the left front (driver) failed after 150k miles.
I wanted to go softer as im
climbing the age chart but I fear i’ve made a huge mistake and I am asking for advice. If these is a forum on this already please link me, as I could not find it.
My front fenders are basically wrecked after 1 month.
My driving style has not changed in 8 years and I am driving as if I still have the the old set up which never rubbed or caused any car issues just spinal for me.
The images are the front spring then rear spring, then fender damage, and tyre damage followed by HR website of what works on my car and then an image of the photo of the sport springs that works for the TDI and GTI.
I noticed the 29008 HA KBA 91225 fit the 2.0 GTI and 1.8 TDI for 2010 MKVI golfs according the H&R website (see image). I have a 2.5L Mkvi golf, and although multiple sites (including H&R) and the shop I went to agreed these would work, the fenders suggest other wise. Does the increased weight of the 2.5l explain this fender destruction of these softer springs despite the 0.4 inch gap increase? any advice?
