A favourite in the VW scene, the Stance+ Lowering Springs give your VW Golf Mk 4 (1J) Hatchback and Estate 2WD a clean, factory-correct 45mm drop with a progressively wound spring for a refined ride. The most accessible way to lower your Volkswagen properly. Suitable for the following 4/5/6 Cylinder Petrol and Diesel engines; 2.3V5, 1.9SDi, 1.9TD and1.9TDi.
The progressive wind design is what gives these springs their broad usability. Light bumps and small road imperfections compress the looser top coils for a comfortable ride. Push harder into a corner and the tighter lower coils take over, giving you the firmer rate that controls body roll and keeps the VW Golf Mk 4 (1J) Hatchback and Estate 2WD planted. One spring, two characters, depending on what you ask of it.
The Stance+ springs are around 25-30% stiffer than the factory springs, which is enough to make a real difference to how the car handles without crossing into uncomfortable territory. You'll feel less body roll in corners, a quicker turn-in response, and a more planted feel at speed. Materials are high-grade: shot-peened chrome silicon steel, powder-coated black.
Designed to suit daily driven cars, this kit gives your VW Golf Mk 4 (1J) Hatchback and Estate 2WD a meaningful 45mm drop and proper handling improvements without the cost or complexity of a coilover kit. Progressive winding makes the everyday compromise minimal.
The springs are a direct replacement for your factory items and work with your existing factory fitted dampers. We always recommend professional fitting by a qualified mechanic, and a full alignment reset on a proper laser machine once installed. Stance+ Lowering Springs are backed by a 1-year warranty as standard.
This Stance+ 45mm Lowering Spring Kit is suitable for: VW Golf Mk 4 (1J) (1997-2004) Hatchback and Estate. 2WD. Fitted with the following engines: 2.3V5, 1.9SDi, 1.9TD, 1.9TDi.
