Tein S Tech Lowering Springs For Volkswagen Golf III 1HX (93-96)

TEIN S.Tech Lowering Springs – Volkswagen Golf III 1HX

TEIN S.Tech Lowering Springs are designed to give the Volkswagen Golf III a dramatically lower stance while improving handling and maintaining street usability. Developed and engineered by TEIN Japan, these springs are ideal for drivers seeking a sportier appearance and enhanced road feel without the harshness of full coilover systems.
