Super video!

[@Robezt]

Thank you for this! Been contemplating getting lowering springs not knowing how it would look like but this is helping me decide!

[@VladGeru]

I'm glad this video helped you. Eibach Pro-Kit are exactly what you need for a car used daily. You will have no problems. You will not touch the bottom of the car anywhere.

[@Robezt]

@@VladGeru I heard they said lowering springs can cause problems to stock absorbers after a certain period of time. Do you know much about this?

[@VladGeru]

@@Robezt yes, it's true, but let's say that the dampers with stock springs will last at least 100,000 km. With sport springs, maybe they will last at least 80,000 km.

[@gabrijeltomic8148]

Amazing. Waited for your video a long time. Keep 'em coming! What are your plans for future?

[@VladGeru]

Thank you. Next year side skirts and Stage 1 I hope 😁

[@ShrubNubXP]

Nice video. What is the ride like? Is it much firmer or is it still smooth over bumps?

[@VladGeru]

The car is much more comfortable in my opinion, but more stable in corners.

[@MisterAzizo]

Hey mate, looks awesome. I got a base model 5F and I was wondering whether you had any problems after putting on the springs? Do you have factory shocks ? My car is as ''stock'' as it gets, besides having new 18 inch rims on it, but I wonder if I have to potentially replace anything else further down just to have it lowered I heard Factory shockers are not recomended with sportline, but is it the same for pro-kit? Cheers

[@VladGeru]

Hello friend. Yes, I have factory shocks and I have a friend with SportLine also with factory shocks. We have no problems.

[@MisterAzizo]

@@VladGeru thanks so much for the swift reply! Damn that's awesome. I'm getting closer and closer to pulling the trigger on the investment, so all of your feedback is much appreciated. Your got yourself a subscriber! I very much look forward to see what else you have in store for your beautiful Leon 😎 Have a good one my friend

[@VladGeru]

@@MisterAzizo thank you very much for the kind words, friend. Today I hope I will upload a video with spark plugs replacement for 1.5 TSI.

[@MisterAzizo]

@@VladGeru Hell yeah! Looking forward to that one, got a 1.2 TSI as well so it'll come in handy hahah, have a great rest of your weekend mate!

What are the pro and the cons, you have a beautiful FR my friend, i am an old fun of your videos, i m from Morocco, and your DIY videos help us a alot, recently i bought VCDS and im starting some coding, you should buy one

[@VladGeru]

Thank you for the kind words. It is a good idea. I will consider to buy one.

[@chrissloan2973]

Hi mate,where did you get your springs from? I can't see a kit that's 20 front and 25 rear mm drop only 35mm front and 30mm rear,I have the 184 TDI.

[@VladGeru]

Yes, also these ones on specifications are 35mm front and 30mm rear. In real life this springs drop my car with 20mm front and 25mm rear which for me was perfect. I bought them from Autodoc.

[@chrissloan2973]

Recently got the same springs fitted as your day, can you tell me how long did it take for the springs to settle? The ride height on mines doesn't look as low as yours. I got the springs fitted a week ago now.

[@VladGeru]

@@chrissloan2973 hello. I hope that you bought springs for your car specifications. I saw the drop immediately. In the same day.

[@monster_rg]

Hello, Vlad, watching your vids with pleasure, I am addicted too. I replaced stock springs on my FR 2016 MY that came with poor road package, lifted and ugly look. I bought EIBACH Sportline lowering springs 40/45 and my black days began. Passing over small bumps are deep hits to hull like a hell. I changed shocks, too. Installed 911 on fronts. I bought adjustable drop links. Nothing helped. I tired to waste my money… but I am not a man to gave up. I still have 17” OEM rims. Would you advise me what would you do in this case. I’ve read so much and everyone is happy, but me. Hope you may say something with this regard. Thank you in advance and drive safe this hotty orange thing !

[@VladGeru]

Hello friend! Sad to hear about this problem. I have 2 friends with Leon FR with Eibach Sport line installed and also with wheel spacers and no issues. Question: 1) you have problems on front axle or rear? 2) You have rear independ suspension? 3) Are you sure the springs are correctly installed?

[@rubenventura9883]

Hi, nice vídeo!! One question , your Leon 5f is a 184hp?

[@VladGeru]

Hello mate. No, is a 1.5 TSI.

[@41592terry]

Would you suggest to lower a mk3.5 FR with Coilovers set , or spring only?

[@VladGeru]

Depends on what you want. You can choose eibach sportline which is much lower.

[@41592terry]

@@VladGeru Thanks, how about I want better handling?

[@VladGeru]

Coilovers in this case.

[@cagrgoksoy8016]

Looks like perfect. Can you share with me the springs kit part number? Also do you have a use spacers?

[@VladGeru]

Eibach Pro-Kit for Seat Leon 1.5TSI part number: E10-15-021-03-22. I also use 15mm front and rear spacers. You have a video on the channel with installation.

With wheel spacers.

hi, has the comfort of the car changed?

[@VladGeru]

Heloo. No, the car is almost the same.

[@MKasap-te8vm]

Did you changed the brake fluid?

[@VladGeru]

This year will be changed together with rear brake pads.

[@golfguyuk]

Why did you ask this. Does the brake fluid somehow link with a lower suspension? Thanks.

[@villekoskela9073]

Did you measure those 20mm and 25mm or are they from specs

Measured.

How bad is the ride now?

[@VladGeru]

Why should be bad? Regarding confort is 80% similar with stock ones.

[@AnthGott]

@@VladGeru because the shock absorber is not it natural position, it gets stiffer as it goes through it's travel. Ramps up.

@@AnthGott prokit's are the perfect balance between confort, look and stability. From my point of view.

How hard are you trying to look like a Cupra lol. Badges, wheels and exhaust

[@VladGeru]

What badges? I have the FR badges. Wheels are the original FR ones, painted black. Wheels from this video are for winter with winter tires. Exhaust is only for look. I don't try to look like a Cupra. I try only to look better.
