Thought about just going with lowering springs on my Jetta but when on the forums (for jettas) its not a good idea to just put lowering springs on your car. Your shocks are tuned for the stock springs and when you lower your car its not going to ride nice because the shocks are so out of tune. yeah it seems like a cheap fast / easy way to get "low" but your better off just going with Coil Overs like raceland, KW, Koni etc.
