I need some help here fellow peers! Here's the problem at hand. I have a 92 16v passat wagon and i'm setting up the suspension. I ordered Koni adjustables and Corrado g60 strut bearings for it, but i'm left with springs!!!!! The car is in the clouds right now with a 3" gap between the wheel arch and tire. I want it to sit almost level, tire to wheel arch. Intrax makes the most drop in a spring, but i'm told that they're junk! Does anyone have any pics or suggestions on what spring to go with. I don't want to do this twice. I want the spring that drops my car and betters the handling all in the same package. Is there such a thing? It seems that the company that claims the most drop has the worst quality.
thanks in advance

Re: springs??????????????????????? (europeanfab)

That's because people who drop their cars tend to do it for looks and that's where the market is for low-quality products. Obviously they can't compete against the quality of others, so they nab up the 'look-concerned' customers.... H&R have a nice ride height and great springs. Plenty of others to choose form like Weitec, etc.

I've got Apex springs on my 16V Passat with Bilstein HDs and I love the drop and the ride.
The H&Rs I have on my G60 Syncro are alright, though I thing the Boge Turbo Gas shocks take a little away from them.
Check out the Apex.

try Neuspeed. Drop is more than .75" advertised (about 1-1.5"), and the ride is good.

Yes, the neuspeed sport springs are great springs and will provide a tasteful and noticeable drop without looking immature and riding underdampered. A company double shipped me a set of springs and had no interest to take them back so if you want them they are yours. They are made specifically for your car and have never been used before. If you do want them though, the soonest I can ship them is the 15th of December since I am at college and the springs are at my house.
Email me at [email protected] not the one in the profile.
EDIT: I can also get you pictures when I go back to my house on the 15th
