Genuine Audi TT Rear Spring Rubbers (Pair) – 8J0512149
If you’ve recently fitted lowering springs or replaced the rear coil springs on your VW or Audi and noticed the rear sitting lower than the front, these Genuine Audi TT Rear Upper Spring Pads are a simple, effective fix. Designed to correct “reverse rake” (where the back of the car sits lower than the front), they restore a level stance without the need for further suspension changes.
As an authorised retailer supplying genuine OEM components, we recommend these spring pads as a straightforward upgrade for anyone chasing the correct ride height balance after a spring swap.
What These Spring Pads Do
Spring pads (or “rubbers”) sit between the top of the coil spring and the body of the car. They cushion the spring, reduce noise, and play a small but important role in setting the final ride height at the rear.
These genuine MK2 Audi TT pads are 7.5mm taller than the standard OEM pads fitted to most VW and Audi models, giving you a useful lift at the rear axle to correct stance issues. They’re also made from a higher durometer (firmer) rubber compound, which reduces deflection under load and offers a slightly more planted feel through the rear suspension.
Key Benefits
- Adds approximately 7.5mm of rear ride height to correct reverse rake
- Firmer rubber compound reduces bushing deflection
- Genuine Audi part, ensuring correct fit and long-term durability
- Simple, low-cost solution compared to changing springs again
Fitment
While these are originally a Genuine Audi TT (MK2) component, they’re widely used across popular VW and Audi platforms as a stance correction part. To confirm suitability for your specific vehicle, please use the vehicle lookup on the Racingline Shop or check the Vehicle Fitment tab for full details.
Note: These pads will resolve most cases of mild reverse rake. If your rear is sitting significantly lower than the front, additional suspension adjustment may still be required to achieve your desired stance.
