if you know of any used coilovers for sale please let me know, even if its just the front two. cheers

that would make sense if these springs are for a petrol engine which would be alot lighter giving more clearance.

the gap to the arch is similar to the one in ur pic of the red polo and it rubs like hell on left hand bends. and its eating the tyres, not happy. gna try some 15`s today, will let u ...

for some reason theres no difference, the guy who fitted said he measured the springs and they were differnt lengths but on the car theres no difference. wtf?

ok thanks for the input, neally bought some ap`s.

iv recently lowered my 6n2 with 60mill springs on sport shocks and theres no clearance on front right but front left is fine.

i measured the wheels and it seems the right is more forward to the front giving less clearance.

antone else noticed this? its the same on my old polo. i have now put ...

my car rubs on the front right more than the front left and its because the front right is positioned haf an inch more towards the front of the car giving me less clearence front the arch.

i vmeasured an identical car and it aswel mesured up the same with the front right wheel haf an inch towards ...

iv now bought 30 mill springs. changing wheels is not an option.

is it posible to put a spacer on the shock to give more hight and stiffness?
