H&R Race Springs - 2011–2013 VW Jetta S, SE, SEL & TDI (MK6)
For the MK6 Jetta owner who wants the most aggressive stance and handling H&R offers without moving to a coilover, the Race Spring is the top of the spring ladder.
H&R’s firmest spring tier, built for drivers who weight handling and stance over the last measure of ride comfort. It is the aggressive end of H&R’s spring lineup, suited to street and occasional track use rather than a daily commuter. The progressive spring rate is what keeps this from riding like a track spring — it works with your factory dampers, not against them.
Important Compatibility Information
If your car doesn’t match that spec, BMP also carries the H&R Sport Springs - MK6 Jetta.
BMP also stocks the matched MK6 Jetta sway bar kit.
Why Choose H&R Race Springs
H&R crafts every spring in this line from a special (hf) 54SiCr6 spring steel and shot-peens it, a process H&R rates for more than double the service life of an untreated spring. Every spring is 100% tested before it leaves H&R’s ISO9001-certified production facility in Germany.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this affect my ride quality?
Yes, noticeably. Race Springs are H&R’s firmest tier, tuned for handling and stance over comfort, and are better suited to a car that sees track time.
Do I need new shocks to run this spring?
No. H&R designs it to work with your factory dampers, and BMP does not require a shock upgrade to install it.
Do I need an alignment after installing this?
Yes. We recommend a four-wheel alignment after installation, our standard advice on any spring or sway bar job in this family.
