Re: suspension

John,
That is one of the main reasons that I got H&R coilovers-height 
adjustability.  Your springs did do as promised, the problem is the design 
of the fenders.  Take a look at your Jetta's profile and you'll see that the 
rear fender doesn't rise as high as the front does.  That means in order to 
get an even stance, you need to dump the front far more than the rear, or it 
will look like the car is sagging.  The only option is to cut your springs 
in the front and bounce around like a Honda, get coilovers and have infinite 
adjustability and incredible handling, or learn to live with it.  You know 
what I did.
