If you're looking for an entry level suspension upgrade for your Volkswagen MK7 GTI, a lowering spring kit may be the best option for you. Lowering springs can enhance the ride quality of your vehicle, while also improving its aesthetics by tucking those wheels and tires a little bit higher in the wheel well. 

Since we offer multiple options of lowering spring kits, this product review covers our four most popular models. They are similar and all come highly recommended by us. Many of our own employees run these lowering springs on their cars.
