Crusoe Posted September 11, 2003 Report Share Posted September 11, 2003 Yes you can, you'll need a coilover kit to sort out the geometry and the ride though. Think fin is planning 18s! :cool: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTIninja Posted September 11, 2003 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2003 I was thinking of using some eibach spring and keeping the original dampers. Would that work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LINCOLNSHIRESLUPOGTI Posted September 22, 2003 Report Share Posted September 22, 2003 I have 45mm offset wheels and I can run my 205/40R17's and have my 65mm all round drop and carry 4 people with ease. Only rubs i get are on outer front arch liner and this is minimal as ive dressed the lips and liners back abit.You will get a rub on the passenger side floorpan on full lock as well, but how often do you drive round on full lock!!! This can be lived with really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
