carter Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 massive thread resurection or what lolin my experience with airide i found doing it on the cheap is the worst thing possible, if i did it again i would do nearly every thing different.a few tips from me would be....1.a slow kit is better than a fast kit, much easier to set the ride hide2.dont bother with side to side, the novelty soon wears off lol3.DO NOT BUY A KIT FROM AMERICA4.if you can stand too, just dont get airide, its far more satisfying driving a car that is low as hell on coilovers lolnot sure weather this will be of help to anyone as it is almost 6 years since i put airide on my Arosa and i know alot has changed since then and im pretty much out of the game now.take it easy everyone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carter Posted January 20, 2010 Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 yeh it wasnt mega low, the rear arches sat on the tyre when fully down, but the front needed some playing about with to make it go lower. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BenLAST Posted January 20, 2010 Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 Did you not use camber shims to tuck the tyres in more at the back? Thats the plan i have, stupid camber when down to get the rears tucked in! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loopzmatt Posted January 20, 2010 Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 i think the point of"Low And Slow"andYoure Not Dubbing Unlees Youre Scrubbing"is purley avoiding potholes, getting used to smash screech when you go over somthing,and taking an extra half hour to get anywhereheres some inspirationcoilovers as low as you can for a dialy for the win got this form cleaned-uk10 point for the wheels off the last mk 2 sweeeeeet as!
