Racingline Volkswagen Golf Mk8 GTI/GTD/Clubsport Lowering Springs Lowering Range: 20mm Front and Rear. Our ever-popular RacingLine Sport Springs are now released for the new Golf 8 GTI & GTD. As always, we’ve carefully developed these progressive-rate springs to give a drop of around 25mm, retaining a beautiful ride yet adding a more dynamic character to the chassis. They are fully compatible with DCC dampers as well as the fixed ones. Compatibility VW Golf 8 GTI / 2020 VW Golf 8 GTI Clubsport / 2020 VW Golf 8 GTD / 2020 Perfect Performance Many experts consider suspension development to be as much an art as a science. In truth, it’s a bit of both. Go lower or stiffer than our springs and your car will bounce and crash as the dampers are mismatched to spring-rate, and the springs themselves run out of travel. Our progressive-rate spring construction means the spring rate in the middle of travel is very similar to standard. It’s only towards the end of the spring’s travel (so, when braking or cornering hard) that we have engineered the spring to stiffen up. It’s this progressive-rate spring design that gives such good ride quality.
