If you use the search button you will see this has been covered time after time after time.

Go to Google and look at the official Eibach site, and you will see that although Eibach specify a specific spring for the Fabia vRS, they "DO NOT" specify a specific item yet for the Octy vRS, some of us have tried the Golf/Jetta ones and they do not work the way they should, so off they came.
Save up and go for KW's, dearer but well worth it, as they are designed for what your asking them to do.

Re: Lowering vrs

The spring only lower about 15mm max so most people don't want them plus i believe the poundage is'nt much more than oe but they fit all the same.

I have had them on for 3 years with no handling problems appart from my bilstein shock that were replaced a few times as were faulty now i have Koni adjs on it with a good combination of comfort and road holding for under 500 quid.
Obviously Kw2-3 or spaxs coilovers are going work the best but cost more. Its just a case of what you want out of the car, how much money you have.

A good combination is uprated roll bar koni fsd shocks and springs if comfort is a factor along with cost or adjuables turned up 2 turns should do the trick.
