Eibach Sportline Lowering Springs – Seat Leon Sportstourer / Skoda Octavia IV Combi
Give your Leon Sportstourer or Octavia IV Combi a lower, more purposeful stance with Eibach Sportline lowering springs. This kit drops the centre of gravity, helping the car feel more planted and responsive without losing everyday usability.
Sportline springs are firmer than standard, reducing body roll in corners and sharpening turn-in, so the car feels more precise on B-roads and motorways. Ride comfort remains controlled when used with good quality dampers, making this a strong option for fast road use and daily driving.
Key benefits
- Lower, sportier look without going to full coilovers
- Improved cornering grip and reduced body roll
- More direct, confidence-inspiring steering feel
- Compatible with factory suspension components
- Designed specifically for the Leon Sportstourer and Octavia IV Combi
Important: This kit is for front-wheel-drive cars without self-levelling suspension and with a rear live axle. Heavier factory options (such as tow bar or glass roof) may require different rear spring pads, available only from Volkswagen Group parts dealers.
