Title: Suspension advice purrrrleeees
Post by: mikeyj on 07 April 2006, 16:17

Hi all.

Just bought a '91 golf gti 8v. It is currently on 15" corrado BBS alloys and I would like around a 60mm drop. Cant really afford coilovers so can anyone recommend any gas dampers and springs? I figure any lower and I may struggle with those pesky speed bumps and roadkill!!!

thanks in advance,

mike

I've got a set of these fitted and can reccomend if your on a budget! Just be specific on the drop you want, as I had to get a replacment set, the ones originally sent were too low!
