Default Coilover Recommendation?

Hello All,

I'm new to the TT World (about 4 weeks now). I'm coming from the VW MKIV GTI world. I'm getting a coilover setup and wanted to hear from the TT Veterans, about which work well for the TT225. I've had great sucess with H&R coilovers on my GTI (felt like it was on rails). I'm wondering if that carries over to the AWD TT?
Thanks in Advance,

Mark

Yep, you can get similar results with H&R coilovers on the TT.

Default I'm pretty happy with the PSS9s I have...

I would like for them to have a little more firm setting but only for track use.

I'm looking for street only since it's my daily driver.

I've only had my TT for a few weeks and I'm already riding on a set of 19's... Getting chipped next weekend at H20... looks like the modding sickness from my GTI is continuing to the TT. lol.

Thanks for all the input/answers.

Default I would say KW V1 or KW V2 ...

KW V1 would be just fine for you since you are riding on the street only. BUT, since you daily it, I only suggest the V2 since you can adjust the stiffness. If you get the V1 and don't like the settings then you're stuck...
