Ok ok, a really bad pic, but its dark....



So now i have my Volks, i really need to sort ride hight, look at the rear wheels it could be mistaken for a range rover

Will lowering springs ruin the handling without going to fully adjustable suspension such as nitrons? How low will it be safe to lower it by with out rubbing if at all...

Recomendations please...

 

mikey k has nitrons with the same wheels .

 

His are slightly different offset, but i am hoping he will have some good advice for me

 

Too right! It looks like it's on stilts!

Nice wheels though.

 

It looks a lot worse due to the camera flash

so how low is safe to go ?

 

The colour of your car is too gay to be lowered!

Lemme know how you get on, I want to lower mine but can't see how I can afford Nitrons and would probably be throwing good money after bad if I got cheaper coilovers .

Nice wheels btw!

 

Get some good piccies in daylight.

The flash is lighting up the wheel arch cavity.

 

I've got spoon springs, and after fitting Megan rear toe arms, and steering rack spackers and getting a "CenterGravity" alignment, all is good.

 

I was considering these:

Then i can use them with nitrons when the time comes. Will a 25mm front/30mm rear drop be ok? Will it rub? how do i calculate these things ?

 

I would not expect lowering springs for the OEM shocks to be transferrable to the Nitrons - different widths:



Also costs you two sets of fitting/alignment.
