Paul 8v Posted November 15, 2007 Report Share Posted November 15, 2007 (edited) Hi, finally got my first loop, it's a 1.4 in the dragon green colour like on the old VR6's. I've bought it as a daily driver so I don't want to muck around with it loads. I'd like to put some G60 steels on it and lower it a bit as it's too far from terra firma for my liking! Firstly, will it drive ok on 15's and how much can I lower it by? I'd like it to be still fine for everyday use, the only other thing I was considering were perhaps the early style rims that would be found on the mk1 like the tarantulas or p slots Edited November 15, 2007 by Paul 8v Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul 8v Posted November 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 Anyone? Has anyone got any piccies of loops on old school VW wheels, I think it'd suit them pretty well but haven't seen any Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol, I just didn't feel they suited the "non-rat" car, and since its winter, i felt there was no point in buying good rimsi modded the rear axle and lowered it more, front n rear. Now things begin to come out lol!So how much are we talking 130? 140? lol Just for future reference.
