    GTI- 50mm or 55mm diameter front struts

    Ordering a set of H&R Cup Kit from Orange Tuning for my GTI.

    Now they have asked me if I have 50mm or 55mm diameter front struts.

    I think it's 55mm, can anyone confirm?

    Thanks, a lot of research online indicates this.

    Not sure you can even get a GTI with 50mm so not sure why H&R have it in their parts reference.

    Looking forward to new suspensions.

    50mm is for the smaller engined models with less weight over the front.
