I wonder if this is the OP's first experience with coilovers? Good Brand choice, though.
It definately is my first experience, I heard nothing but good things about them.

In the VW/Audi world the PSS's are known to not go low probably should have said that instead of sayin they all dont go low. I just know that 95 percent of people that put them on audi's or VW's dont get nearly as low as they thought they would with them. And slammed is relative i see people on here say oo my cars slammed and it really isnt that low not tryin to diss people or anything just in all honesty.

There really is no logical point to dumping a car, sure you get the VW kids beating their collective dicks when it tucks 5' of wheel and tire, but from a "performance" standpoint its completely absurd. Unless of course hard parking is your thing, then you need a lot moar low.


I personally would leave the height where it is, get some wider wheels and a lot more tire and rock on. I don't imagine you having ANY problems scraping.

thats if the shop has the ability to align or not.

i mean, what else would you expect someone to do with a PIG of a TT, that handles less than par?

PSS's didn't get the 9's, felt i didnt need the camber adjustment, and never even heard of 10's.

The handling isn't amazing, hopefully when i get some sway bars that will help it out a bit.

the MKIV platform is real bad to try and get to handle as well as other cars. they just don't go low, and to be honest it dosen't look like you lowered it anymore.

there are springs and struts you can buy that actually don't lower the geometry any more, and it handles the best.

lowering the car even 1.5" makes it handle worse then stock btw.
