What springs can I fit to my hdi to lower it 50/60mm ish? Can only see 30/40mm after a quick search

Do people use other model springs?

they ride like crap on standard shocks or even short ones for that matter, buy coilovers or dont go as low and get decent springs

How low are those Dan? Are they for a hdi? Pm me details and prices pal
Am I right in thinking thay gti 40mm springs lower a hdi about 50mm? Or is it the 1.4 springs or something?

Slightly off topic now but does anyone know if the 40mm gti6 shocks that are on now would lower a hdi more or less then 40mm? With engine weight and what not?
