Lowering MK5 Polo SDI

Post by zahir_213 »

Hi all,
need a little help with lowering my MK5 Polo SDI
First of all I dont need to go extremly low so that I cant even make it over speed bumps, but I really need to sort out the huge gap between the tyre and the wheel arch. I suppose I would need to fit some lowering springs. Does anybody have any recommendations for lowering springs? Im runin 15's at the moment with 194/50/r15 .

cheers

dans cars' got Spax lowering springs, about 40mm! look real nice on 195/45/15's! only thing we have had a slight problem with the exhaust as its quite low! only pings the exhaust when going over speed bumps with 4 people in da car! apart from that, road holding is great, nice ride, bit harsher than standard but they are all good!
