Title: Help with lowering springs
Post by: Paul81 on 16 May 2011, 13:36

Guys!!

Been recommended by rolty_gti to get some FK lowering springs for my 1.8 turbo, i've found a website that stocks them but there are various different options to choose from and im confused as i don't know much about suspension setup etc  :huh:

Can someone take a look at this site and tell me what i need?

Cheers!!
