thats mine on jamex coilovers , down about 60mm i think No spacers.

Put a decent sealant on the wheels and keeping them lean will be much easier , mine are well over a year old now , but I use poorboys wheel sealant on them every few months :)

edit : better pic to show ride height

If those wheels are reps you have the wrong bolts fitted, get them replaced asap with the correct taper fit.

You :smiley:, reps use these bolts: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/20-x-ALLOY-WHEEL-BOLTS-VW-GOLF-MK4-5-BOLT-14mm-VOLKSWAGEN-NUTS-R7-/320862659087?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item4ab4e7a20f

Standard bolts will not hold the correct torque.
