Default Opinions on springs. which is the right height for a tt?

I haven't gotten the TT yet cause i still havent sold my damn car. ive been a member since APRIL and still i havent sold my car and gotten a tt. anyways, my bday is coming up and i was thinking since im not gonna have the tt, i can atleast start to get stuff for it...(I know i sound crazy, but im sure im getting a tt) I was thinking springs? I was looking at some tein s tecs and h tecs. also some neuspeed etc... what have you guys found to be the appropriate compromise for ride height for daily driving/looking good? is their a certain kind you would reccomend? thanks all

you need to get the car and see how much you want to drop it. Wheel well gap is differnt to everyone, some may want it to be completly gone and some people with bad roads want some so they dont bottom out if they hit a hole in the road.

They make the H and S both for the fwd and none for the awd. The S is a 1" drop and the H is a worthless .4" drop. Both sold here

In retrospect I wish I had dropped mine more than the .9" that the Hotchkis springs bring it down. I should have gone 1.5"

everyone is doing springs... and then finding out about the k-mac kit you need if you get springs so dont forget that...

speaking of the kmac... do you need it if you do coilovers? (im going with coilovers because you'll eventually need shocks anyway)

fwd cars dont need anything and awd cars need 1/2 to full depending on drop. Think becca's car is fine with her 1" drop and 1/2 kit. Anything more and you will need a full kit.
