tl;dr: am doofus, want sum low, what do?
Got a new-to-me 2012 VW Passat TDI a month ago. Want it to sit slightly lower and not ride awful (slightly stiffer is fine). I'm also pretty sure I don't want coil overs (but feel free to convince me otherwise).
Currently have these parts picked out:
H&R Sport Springs
Neuspeed 25mm Rear Sway Bar
Koni Strut & Shock Kit
I'm aware that people run those sport springs on stock shocks/struts but there's also people saying the stock shocks don't last (I'm already at 55K).
I also hear people talk about replacing bushings/mounts and I've got no idea what bushings/mounts they're talking about (like here where someone mentioned replacing these mysterious bushings with Audi TT bushings).
Anyone able to clarify?
Thanks!
