lowering and alloy sizes
« on: 03 March 2004, 10:02 »
hi everyone

well ive finnaly purchased a very nice 91 mk2 gti 16v with very tastey extras... it has a full g60 arch conversion.... and is lowered on bilstein shocks and springs!!!

now it is well low!! i mean the vr6 spliter sits about 3-4 inches off the road! it has standard bbs rims!!! and just really needs my final input to make the car a bit more mine if you know what i mean as the previous owner really did do some subtle mods to it!!

i was thinking of changing the alloys!! to some AZEV A alloys now ive seen loads of mk2 in mags with 17's on them but with the lowness of my car already am i gonna keep scrubbing if i go for 17's or should i do 16's

pls help!!!
