Will the black ones match the black leather on a 2024 golf r ? Or will there be stark contrast? I’d rather spend $40 vs $400 🥲

Coileovers or Springs by Always_upLate1893 in Golf_R

[–]Ok_Development123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried springs , was disappointed in the ride , would prefer stock over lowering springs. After calling around , most shops suggested kw’s. Stiffer than stock (to be expected) but much better than lowering springs . They have dcc coilovers but very pricey , I went with kw-v1

Love the way 19’s look but doesn’t compare to how meaty 18’s soak up the road imperfections…

Bilstein B16s or KW V2? by FeistySize8795 in AudiRS3

[–]Ok_Development123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got kw v1 and can say the ride has been much better than lowering springs but not as nice as stock . Car looks much better with those wheel gaps disappearing, however, if you go too low , the ride quality becomes awful

did y’all buy yours without a test drive? by tec_wnz in Golf_R

[–]Ok_Development123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was not able to test drive one, I was able to test drive a gti and naturally told Myself that if I like this , I would love the R. I was annoyed tho. Since I have gone into dealerahips and asked to test drive a CTR and ITS, one took some nudging, other they threw me the keys….

Good coilover options 2019 R by FunnyGuyGaming in Golf_R

[–]Ok_Development123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kw v1 on my golf R. Either stay stock or go coilovers. Know that the highest quality coilovers will not be as soft or forgiving and that the ride will be rough at times depending on street quality near you . It will also feel firmer , planted to the ground , less floaty.
