I have chosen to go for the eibach pro-kit lowering springs but there are 2 different 1s coming up, the differences being that 1 set have a fa load of 995kg and the 2nd 1055kg. My car is 1.8 se anybody know which springs I should go for?
Which springs?

Only difference I can see is rear axle load is 1115kg for quattro and 1045kg fwd would this make a difference?

you need FWD springs, and make sure you get the 995kg front ones.
The 1055's are V6 springs, and although they list them for "4 cyl with Aircon" the ratings are totally wrong for that application, and makes the car sit with reverse rake. The 995's are usually listed as "4cyl without aircon" but those are the ones you want, even if you do infact have aircon!
