Product Description

H&R part #29489 Sport Lowering Springs are engineered specifically for Volkswagen Beetle models produced from 1998 through 2010 with four-cylinder and turbocharged engines. These sport springs lower the vehicle's ride height approximately 1.4 inches at the front and 1.2 inches at the rear, reducing the center of gravity to enhance handling, improve cornering stability, and deliver a more aggressive visual stance.

Constructed from high-strength spring steel with a progressive spring rate design, this kit balances everyday ride comfort with improved handling characteristics. The springs are compatible with the factory damping system or appropriate performance dampers, making them a popular upgrade for Beetle owners seeking sharper road feel, reduced body roll, and a tighter suspension profile for spirited driving or a refined street-ready stance.
