Anyone got any views on this or had it done yet and can give us a report? No mag ride issues?

William @MSS did offer a discount when I enquired but it needs 10 buyers

There were some big posts on the development of this kit on a RS3 8V last year - U not read them or just looking for a more independent review?

I've been offered the kit at a good price just looking to see if it's worth it is all :)

Link to that thread though?

Seems it might have been deleted as I can't find it - it was being over promoted for free by a forum member however so wont be surprised if admin decided to remove it all

We've got the H&R springs and they are 'ok'.  We're running them with 20" OZ rims, ride can be harsh at times - But bearable.  Ive heard good thing about these MSS springs, and may consider swapping over.  Be interested in what deal can be had?  Id like to rear a review on them too

Oli, this could be the 3rd set of springs for you mate. May just have to go with coilovers 👍😁

If you think about it, H&R are around £200. Coilovers are £2,000 and these MSS springs are slap bang in between. Whether they are worth it or not is another thing as not many people would have tried all three options.

Bilsteins B16 PSS10 are £1400 if you don't mind losing DDC. Pretty much seen as the go to option for the S3/Golf MK6 & MQB platforms.

£800 for springs is mental.

RS3 8V FL - bone stock...for now.

RS3 8V - eTuners Stage 3 480hp.

Maybe it is, but I'd rather go for the these than the Bilstein or other coilovers

Totally agree, and note the price is plus VAT so its £960 which is just a mick take for springs. I've seen a 10-15% discount mentioned in the past but that still doesn't make them priced correctly. £500 absolute tops if you ask me, and that's if they are significantly better than H&R.

 

Bit like the 034 Motorsport air intake at £900. Bit of piping and a cone filter IMO.

The noise from the intake is epic though

Im a Bilstein dealer, so would obviously get the kit a bit cheaper, but I want an option that will work better with the factory adjustable suspension - Ive sent an email to MSS to get some more details

Ok So Ive had a long chat with William at MSS Springs today - Ill be receiving a kit soon, and I can give a proper evaluations for you.  It sounds just what we are after with the 20's and rear ARB.  He really seems to know his stuff as well.

 

Anyone want to buy some H&R Springs? Done approx 1000 miles....
