hi, lowering my gti 40mm 35mm

[mikey kc]

Hi everyone im new to this site i have just bought myself a very tidy mk3 golf gti 8v in black after selling my mk3 ibiza cupra. it already has a nice set of 17s on it but i felt it was siting to high. Ive ordered a set of spring to lower the front 40mm and the rear 35mm.

Ive been searching for a good hour looking at different mk3s but i havent seen one lowered like this they have ether just been 40mm or slamed on coilovers.

im lowering the car next sat so i was wondering if it was possible if anyone could post a picture of there car lowered like this on 17 thannks in advance mike.

if youve looked at enough pictures you will have seen that a mk3 lowerd 35/40mm on 17's will still look like a 4x4 and also just buying springs will mean even worse handling on top of a already poor handling car.

Welcome btw

i ve looked at plenty of pictures but none lowered 35 rear 40 front like i stated! i dont want it slammed as ive been there with other cars i would just like some indication on what it would like.

Welcome to the site.

17"s look big, a 40mm drop will hardly show.

looked nice, seen it many a time on the bypass between the peacock and sainsburys i had a black 3dr mk2 gti but just bought a black 5dr mk 3 gti. nice to have some local gti owners
