[jetta1.8T]

I've a 1.8T jetta and I couldn't decide which shocks to get for eibach 1.2" drop spring. Should I get koni yellow, bilstein or eibach damper? I don't need adjustable but bilstein is more expensive than koni.
I choose 1.2" drop because I want handling, not the look.
Also, I don't go to track or autoX but I want my car to handle like BMW 3 series with sport suspension.

Well,let's see. Only one of the three shocks you mentioned is actually designed to work with the shocks you mentioned. Which do you think will best?

The Eibach dampers are going to prob be the best set up, seein as how Eibach took there springs into consideration when making there shocks.
Personally I run the Koni yellows. I love em to http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif

. You can fin tune the ride youwant. Nice and stiff or, nice and stoft, or any where inbetween.

I've got the Pro-Dampers, but I wanted the Koni Yellows. There was about a $100 price difference (Koni Group Buy) at the time.
If I had to do it over again, I would have saved up another $100 so I could have some adjustability. If you don't want adjustability, get the Pro-Dampers.
