Megan racing or vogtland Lowering springs
I have searched but have come up with nothing. Anyone ever use the megan racing lowering springs or the vogtland? I have had megan racing coils and springs on my g8 before and had no problems. Thanks!

With all due respect and please take this constructively, Megan Racing Coilovers are not good. If your looking for a budget setup, go with Fortune Auto. At least with them, you have some degree of support, rebuild ease, and customization based on how you drive.

Regarding springs, either Vogtland or H&R Will work.

Why are people recommending h and r springs when most people complain about pulling one way or another won't drive straight?

It's not most, it's just some. And lets be honest, 90% of the reason people come to forums is to complain about issues/problems. So it may seem like there are a lot of complaints.

There are a ton of people on H&R springs with no issues at all.

If lowering both sides of the car evenly with H&R causes pulling, a spring of same lowering characteristics made by another company would also cause pulling.

The pulling has nothing to do with the actual springs. It's due to improper alignment specs after messing with ride height. If it's going to happen to a car, it's going to happen regardless of spring as everyone has different alignment specs.

Plus, getting it back into spec isn't hard with a couple of the OE camber bolts.
