If you want an OEM original ride you can probably stick with the springs you have and get some Bilstein B4 rear shocks and front cartridges. Any other way will be stiffer and lower. This will have it ride about like it did when new.

Pros: OEM original ride
Cons: stiffer and lower
Vehicle: Volkswagen

I tried this as one of four combinations of suspension on my 2015 GSW TDI. The B8's and Eibach Pro combo lowered my car about 1 1/2 \" front and rear. The handling was awesome but a bid too firm for the bad roads in my town...I'm getting soft in my old age. I loved the way the car looked.

Pros: awesome handling, good look
Cons: too firm for bad roads

Bilstein 5100's have been the best shock I've ever used on a truck. I've had Fox shocks, even with remote reservoirs... and I'd still take the 5100's.

Pros: best shock ever used

I replaced all mine at 88k. A little bit before that (maybe around 85k), I started getting wheel hop with WOT in 1st and even a little in 2nd, with stock power. Bilstein B4s, and no more wheel hop :)

Pros: no more wheel hop
Cons: wheel hop with WOT
Mileage: 88000 km

I have the "new" GoWesty Bilstein Sport shock installed about a month ago. While they improved everything, I was still disappointed in the body roll.

Pros: improved everything
Cons: disappointed in body roll
