Re: opinions please! - 16inch wheels on 6R

with standard 16inch wheels. lowered on VW eibach springs, which i think are 30mm F&R. has dropped a little more they have settled, needs to be a little lower on the rear though. was thinking of the H&R 25/40 kit, and just fitting the rears. http://i1293.photobucket.com/albums/b599/dkdaz/SAM...

Re: opinions please! - 16inch wheels on 6R

Re: Polo 6R Lowering Springs

depends on how low you want to go. i have the VW eibachs on mine. front looks good, but the rear needs to be lower, as i have a nose down stance. It has a decent ride, not too harsh, and corners much better. i am considering the H&Rs myself, although i would just fit the rear springs though. I j...

Re: Lowering Guide??

Can't help with the question you asked, but would like to see a before and after pic.

Re: MK5 Polo UK Vin number

If you give the VIN number of the car you are looking at to a dealer, they can tell you if it has been imported.

UK cars have a regional code number of 210.

The VIN itself wont tell you where it came from, only where it was manufactured.
