I've got the pro-kit springs, but I went with Bilstein shocks
The Eibach pro-kit springs are soft, almost as soft as factory sport. That's good for a daily driver like my car but not the greatest for the track. Also, they tend to sag in the rear if you load the car with 4 people or load the trunk.

Agreed, for a similar ride height but a little stiffer than Eibach... Look into Vogtland.
I loved Eibachs ride height but it was a bit too soft for my liking (drove a passat and a 2.8 with the pro-kit)so i went with Vogtland, Ive had 5 people in the car no problem, and have had I think 8 or 10 cinder blocks in the trunk.
It dosent sag excessively in either instance.

the reason the pro-kit springs are soft is that they have been mis-speced...
the prokit/eurosports spring kit sold in the US for the 1.8T are speced for a car without AC. this is why the fronts are too soft. i checked the wind numbers before i installed them. if you want the right springs for your car use this application guide.<ul><li><a href="http://www.eibach.de/frame.inc.php?SPA=1&C_lang=en&LID1=2&L ID2=4&LID3=0">http://www.eibach.de/frame.inc.php?SPA=1&C_lang=en&LID1=2&L ID2=4&LID3=0</a</li></ul>
