Their springs are manufactured from high-grade chromium silicon steel wire, cold-wound and shot-peened for maximum fatigue resistance, and coated against corrosion. H\u0026amp;R Sport Cup Kits are developed on European proving grounds and engineered to maintain proper suspension geometry and bump stop clearance throughout the lowered ride height range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the lowering amount for the HRS31043-1 on the VW Jetta MK6?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe HRS31043-1 provides approximately 1.6 inches of front lowering and 1.5 inches of rear lowering on the 2014-2018 Volkswagen Jetta MK6. H\u0026amp;R notes that actual lowering can vary based on vehicle configuration, options weight, and current suspension condition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the HRS31043-1 include both springs and shock absorbers?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The Sport Cup Kit includes everything: front and rear sport springs plus front and rear monotube shock absorbers. The shocks are specifically valved by H\u0026amp;R for the stiffer progressive spring rates, ensuring the suspension system performs as a matched unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill the HRS31043-1 fit all Jetta MK6 trim levels including TDI and GLI?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The HRS31043-1 is compatible with the 2014-2018 Volkswagen Jetta MK6 in S, SE, SEL, TDI, and GLI configurations. The kit is designed around the MK6 platform's front-wheel-drive suspension architecture common to all these trims.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo I need an alignment after installing the HRS31043-1?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A full four-wheel alignment is required after installing any suspension kit that changes ride height. Lowering the vehicle shifts camber, toe, and caster from their factory settings, and driving without an alignment will accelerate tire wear and may affect handling predictability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long does it take to install the HRS31043-1 Sport Cup Kit?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cp\u003eA professional shop with proper spring compressor equipment typically completes a Sport Cup Kit installation in 3-4 hours for the Jetta MK6. Home installation is possible for experienced mechanics, but proper spring compressor and torque equipment is essential for safety.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the HRS31043-1 affect ride quality compared to stock?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe progressive spring rate design minimizes the ride quality penalty associated with performance lowering springs. For most drivers, the HRS31043-1 provides a noticeably sportier feel than stock while remaining comfortable for daily driving. The ride is firmer than stock but not harsh, and the reduced body roll improves driver confidence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the HRS31043-1 compatible with aftermarket wheels?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, with standard precautions. After lowering, confirm adequate clearance between the tire sidewall and strut\/wheel well at full lock and full compression. Most 17-18-inch aftermarket wheels with appropriate offset fit without issue, but always verify before installing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat warranty does H\u0026amp;R provide on the HRS31043-1?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cp\u003eH\u0026amp;R provides a limited lifetime warranty on their springs against defects in materials and workmanship.
