HoR = No.
H&R = Yes.

Right now I am thinking 87 Jetta - H&R Cup Kit. It has these tall
touring Dunlops on it so this should fill the well also. Right now I
have too much rebound on normal bumps (dampening power all used up).

Boge makes some decent OEM style shocks, of course Bils and Konis make
for a more aggressive fit. SInce the A2 chassis is heavier than the A1s
i am used to I am still gaining knowledge in this area.
