Hi im new few questions
« on: 30 August 2009, 23:00 »
Right on wednesday I pick up my first Golf its a mk4 3dr 2.0 115bhp. I believe the colour is ink blue? Anyway I hav ebeen looking at tuning parts i.e wheels and lowering , valances etc.
My questions are:-

1) can you lower the golf with 45mm springs  on 18s without replaceing the arb?
2) where can you get the anniversary valances and sideskirts from?

And finally has anyone got a ink blue mk4 with bbs style wheels on?

Many thanks and hello to all. :smiley:

What id like to do so far:-

1)Those 18" bbs look alloys
2)Spax 45mm springs
3)Anniversary body kit.
4)De badged front grill

That will do me for a while lol, got to convince the better half first  :grin:

Ive had a look through the gallery and there doesnt seem to be many ink blue ones?

Those wheels won't fit though mate, they are 5x112 not the 5x100 you'll need

weird how it says 5x100 in subtitle at top and 5x112 in the description!

i'd message the seller and check what PCD they are first!
