#1 question I'd ask Neal if I were you is if they manufactured those themselves, or repackaged it from a different manufacturer.

I noticed in the specs that the Euros lower the 204 1.4 inches and they are for 4 matics. Neither Eibach or H&R advertise this, most posts here, that I`ve read have had conflicting outcomes on lowering from either Eibach or H&R.

Sounds like you may have some additional info about the Euros? Are you suggesting the Euros arn`t of the same quality of either Eibach or H&R? I have been interested in lowering my 09 sport 4 matic but have not because of the conflicting info and no conclusive info on them as to the exact outcome of installing the springs

most likely Eibach makes it for them since Eibach is based here in SoCal. they can make different spec upon request it's not that big of a deal. all depends on if you are willing to pay for them and if they satisfy your need on lowering the car.

a reminder is that they may not sell as easy when you are going to get rid of them vs Eibach or H&R.

Yeah, not saying they're not high quality, but it's good to know who actually manufactured the product. Like for instance the Euroteck BBK is actually a Rotora kit.

I recently got euroteck springs installed for almost a week. So far so good. I have 5mm in rear and have about 1 1/2 finger in front and 1 in rear. Little stiffer then oem.

Nice so im guessing its an even drop between front and back like stated in the specs. I was looking for springs I didnt have to match w/ 5mm pads.

A member installed HR supersport 1.7f 1.8r onto their 4matic, but thats too low for me. So the 1.4 f/r with pad is just right

"These are made for us by a factory in the Netherlands who makes
suspensions per our specs."

Quoted from Neal.

Is that a good company? My only concern w/ these springs are ride comfort, but how much difference could there be between these and say h&r?

Vogtland is a very good company, but if it's from them why not just buy one that's branded Vogtland. It isn't like you are buying Brabus springs which is made by Eibach, but the Brabus name in it self is enough to sell and be worry free.

difference are in spring rates and drop.

The euroteck has more of a drop than vogtland and I like the fact that the front and rear is even. I just ordered them so Ill post some before and after shots when they get in.
