Dropping my polo

Post by Polo96CL »

Hey,

I want to drop my polo by about 60mm (however i'm happy with 40mm) but worried about it looking crap on my steels. It's got budgets on at the moment but looking to get some of the 16v one soon, how low do you think the car would be off the ground with:

13" steels
14" 16v wheels

Cheers,

Daz

it'll look better lowered 60mm on steelies, than standard height on steelies. So i wouldnt worry about it!

down 60mm on 14's is no issue with the right tyre profile. Think the 16v steels would look better.

Cheers mate, saw your post over on CP and decided on 60mm. Going to get some of Philj's £200 coilovers anyway now so I can adjust when I want 8)
