Designed for use with DCC or Non-DCC dampers, our performance lowering springs are a direct plug-and-play upgrade that offer a lower center of gravity and increased spring rates to reduce body roll. Many lowering springs on the market today simply lower your vehicle and give a false sense of improvement by feeling overly stiff. We took a different approach with our design. We extensively track and street tested several iterations to deliver a system that not only makes your MK8 GTI look great, but does so while delivering a comfortable experience that doesn't constantly crash and bottom out the dampers. Through a proper ride height configuration, we're able to greatly increase spring rates for improved handling, but do so without leaving the ride harsh, bouncy, and uncomfortable. Your MK8 Golf R will be planted with a minimal impact on comfort. It's a system you'll love the second you're behind the wheel! These springs were designed in house and manufactured in the USA using a premium high tensile chrome silicon steel for excellent resilience against sagging and failure for years to come. Each spring comes powder coated in our signature red color, further protecting the spring from the elements. The front and rear springs are a dual rate spring that will operate as a single rate, linear spring, under normal loaded driving situations. All center of wheel to fender (CF) measurements were recorded on our in-house US Spec 2022 MK8 GTI (DCC) test vehicles and may vary slightly from vehicle to vehicle. Lastly, while this system was designed specifically for the MK8 GTI it will fit other similar platform vehicles.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"productpage_list\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLowers 22 mm or .87 in Front \/ 29 mm or 1.14 in Rear (DCC)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncreases Spring Rate 36% or +72 lbs\/in at 274 lbs\/in Front \/ 50% or +140 lbs\/in at 420 lbs\/in Rear (DCC)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDual Rate Spring (164 lbs\/in to 270 lbs\/in Front)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDual Rate Spring (320 lbs\/in to 420 lbs\/in Rear)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOperates as a single rate “linear” spring during loaded usage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreatly improves vehicles stance and appearance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemains comfortable on the street\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLowers the vehicle’s center of gravity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduces body roll\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImproves handling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDoes not easily bottom out dampers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned for use with DCC and Non-DCC OEM dampers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirect plug-and-play\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade from a high tensile chrome silicon steel that resists sagging and failure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePowder coated red finish protects springs from corrosion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in the USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"accordion-row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"collapsible-title\"\u003eSpecs\u003cspan class=\"slides-in\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row-contents active expanded\"\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"attributes-table\" cellspacing=\"0\" style=\"width: 100%;
