VW Golf R Mk7 & Mk7.5 Eibach Lowering Springs Kit (2013-2020)
Description
Eibach Pro-Kit Progressive Lowering Springs for VW Golf R Mk7 / Mk7.5 (20132020)
The Eibach Pro-Kit is the world’s most trusted performance lowering spring system and for the Volkswagen Golf R Mk7 and Mk7.5 (20132020), it represents the ideal first step in a suspension upgrade programme. Lowering the Golf R’s centre of gravity by 15mm at both front and rear, the Pro-Kit delivers a visibly improved stance, reduced body roll in corners, reduced nosedive under braking and reduced squat under acceleration – all without compromising the factory ride quality.
The Pro-Kit’s defining characteristic is its progressive spring design. Unlike linear springs with a single fixed rate, Eibach’s progressive coils start softer (everyday comfort) and progressively stiffen as compression increases (corner control and body roll resistance). This dual-rate characteristic delivers both improved handling and maintained ride quality.
Engineered to work perfectly with the Golf R’s OEM shock absorbers – no damper replacement or additional components required.

FAQs
Q: How much will this lower my Golf R?
A: The Eibach Pro-Kit lowers the Golf R by 15mm at both front and rear, measured from the standard factory ride height. If your car already has factory sports suspension, your actual drop will be less than 15mm.
Q: Do I need to replace my shock absorbers?
A: No. The Eibach Pro-Kit is specifically designed to work with the Golf R’s OEM (factory) shock absorbers. No damper upgrade is required – simply swap the factory springs for the Pro-Kit springs.
Q: What is a progressive spring?
A: A progressive spring has a variable rate – softer at low compression (everyday comfort) and progressively stiffer at higher compression (cornering loads). This is why the Pro-Kit delivers both improved handling and maintained ride quality.
Q: Is this for 4Motion (4WD) Golf R only?
A: The Pro-Kit for this application is designed for the Golf R with 4Motion. The Golf R is only offered with 4Motion, so all Golf R Mk7/Mk7.5 models are compatible.
Q: Does lowering affect my MOT or insurance?
A: A 15mm lowering with Eibach should not cause an MOT failure as suspension geometry remains within legal parameters. Inform your insurer of any suspension modification.
