No...they won't...

If you're looking for a good suspension setup for your MK1 check the Marketplace section. What kind of money are you looking to spend and what are you using the car for???

my front struts are all jacked up right now so im trying to buy new struts and springs all the way around but im not trying to spend a ton of money and i only want to cruise in my car but yet still have that handling to rip through corners and the power to pull on the highway... maybe im asking to much

Nah...you're not asking for too much. But depending on what kind of money you want to spend you might be. Springs are easy to come by...I'm not that familiar with the MK1 setups but I've heard the ST springs paired with Tokico HP's (aka Blues) are great and not too expensive. I would also replace the bushings while you're at it. Because of the age of the car this will make a vast improvement in the handling and ride.

You can get everything from one of our sponsors Twosrus. They're great and have everything you need. Ebay will have the struts for pretty cheap. Here's links...
