one litre wonder ;) Posted June 13, 2005 Report Share Posted June 13, 2005 jj u can have a look at my car mate , mines is on 40mm springs ( ment for the lupo GTI so mines sank a bit more , still havent worked out the total drop in the end ) and its on 14's so u can have a look at mines at the meet style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> cause i know what u are thinking cause when i was looking at lowering cause it can look not that low in a pic but when you see two cars side by side then that shows a difference , thinking of that i have a pic of my car next to a standard one i'll put up so u can see it about the speed bumps , mines is fine ( with a 185/55/14 tyre) the only things i rub on are - -getting on and off the drive ( cause i have to go over a peak and it hits the sills but nothing major ) - mega speed bumps ( to be honest never tryed them incase i hit the bumpers off of them and i have had mines colour coded and dont want to scratch the paint ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
