How many MK7's have Coilovers installed?

[KCchiefin]

Dropped mine on ST X coils a few weeks ago. Had to raise them up because I was rubbing with the stock wheels. So far no rub with the new 18x9.5s.

What did you do to prevent rubbing in the front? Just w/ the stock wheels I was rubbing towards the front of the fender liner where the bumper attaches.

i only rubbed in that area on bumps and hard turning. i did remove the screw that is near the top inside the fender and bent that tab.

Ah ok, those are the same situations I rubbed as well. Also removed the fender screw and bent the tab upwards. I might drop it a little lower this weekend.

Getting HPA SHS Coil-overs installed next week.
Can't wait!

Of course, I'm doing Eurocode F/R swaybars, SuperPro front control arms, SuperPro F/R swaybar end links too

Just curious why the decision to use Eurocode swaybars, but not use their end links in favor of SuperPro?

Thanks!

i expected a bit more feedback in this thread, but i guess not. i'm also debating on going with VWR springs or bilstein coils. the drop from the VWR springs are perfect for me, but i'm just wondering if coils are really necessary. my main concern with either is the ride quality. i prefer to keep it as OEM as possible, if not making it a bit smoother. i'm just wondering if the price difference between the two is worth it for me to dole out $1000 for the same or very similar result.

best answer is from my experience is if your looking for very low height or tracking/autocrossing then coils are the way....if you looking for daily with little drop springs are the better route

How many threads are left to go front and rear? Looks good as it sits now though!

Thank you! Sorry for the late response but I can go about half an inch, maybe a tad less, lower than it sits now.
