stormseeker 0 Posted August 8, 2003 Std at the mo' but would like a subtle -30/-25 drop rear/front. Saving up my pocket money for them coileys. ( front shocks are on their way out so rather than replacing them with std. items it would be false economy not to upgrade them :) - that's what I've been telling the missus anyway :wink: :wink: :wink: ) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sy_VW 0 Posted August 8, 2003 I lowered mine on coilovers so low that the driveshafts where rubbing whilst going over bumps on the front subframe :crazyeyes: Thought I had better raise it a lttle!! If you have it too low :) , it's a nightmare going anywhere with speed bumps. Also I couldn't park in multistory car parks as I couldn't get up the ramps.

Robch 0 Posted August 8, 2003 Not got a C. As you know Daz. But I've gone for about a 70mm drop all round. I have just less than 2.5" between the ground and the splitter at the front. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hans G60.nl 0 Posted August 10, 2003 you all have got to see this... this is his actual ride height in the winter... summer time he even goes 30mm lower, but on 17" ers the left one is allready lowered 50/50 so guess what the right one is ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Banana Man 0 Posted August 10, 2003 less than half a fag packet this is why I dont drive with the chin spoiler on coz round here theres to many speed bumps to pull it off :( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Banana Man 0 Posted August 14, 2003 Cant see that passat rs bumper lasting long if he actually drives about with it that low fiberglass and tarmac dont go together very well as I found out with my golf rs front bumperit was demolished within about 3 mnths Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sham69 0 Posted August 14, 2003 Mine is lowered 30 mm front and back on H&R's, sits very nice, but standard gas shocks don't provide nearly enough damping - so I am awaiting to take delivery of my new coilovers!!! can't wait. My springs are for sale by the way. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
