Audi Tuning | VW Tuning

While we have APR looking into a few details prior to software upgrades, we are wasting no time with the Achtuning VW Golf R and getting right down to business with the suspension! Our Achtuning VW (Mk5) Jetta 2.5L had up until now been running the H&R Premium coil-over kit taken from the Achtuning A3, which has been down for the count while it awaits an APR Stage 4 motor. We’re then going to throw the stock Golf R suspension on the Jetta for now.

H&R also sent us an RSS Club Sport coil-over kit to put on the A3 but more about that later… It’s Golf R time!  The H&R Premium coil-over kit is now installed on the Achtuning Golf R.  The Achtuning “Signature” ride height is a mild drop leaving roughly a finger-to-two-finger gap between the top of the tire and the bottom of the fender. These are just after installation so we anticipate a small amount of spring settling to occur.

And if any of you Mk5 Jetta guys are wondering where you’d sit after installing Golf R suspension, look here:

There’s nothing quite attention-grabbing like a bright red Audi, especially an A6 sitting proper over a set of 19″ Hartmann HA8-199 Wheels with that bold machined finish! H&R coil-overs were spun down a healthy amount to eliminate that dreaded wheel gap and properly hug those 19s and a few little subtle touches like a custom roof spoiler help this thing stand out!

When Peter saw a certain local bagged Audi A6 he knew exactly what he wanted and what direction he was going to go to get there. But he didn’t necessarily want to drop the coin on a button-pressing, height-adjustable air-ride kit, either. Instead, the call came to us which resulted in the purchase of H&R’s Street Performance Coil-Over kit for the C6 A6.

End result…

Hey Mike, time for new wheels.

Dan felt his Audi A6 sat too high. Even compared to the S-Line suspension packages on the dealer lot, he felt his A6 could stand to sit a touch lower. A call to Achtuning meant a purchase of H&R Street Coil-overs. As one of the very affordable, entry-level coil-over kits for the C6 A6 on the market, H&R’s system offers a range of 1.2 to 2.2 inches and allows the A6 to stay firmly planted on all 4-corners, improving over-all handling.

H&R coil-over kits are very competitively priced in our online catalog. Check and see the incredible pricing we have to offer while shopping coil-overs for your car!
