You won't get any rubbing 60/60 down. I'd try and go at least 60mm all round personally.

Re: fk 60/40 suspension kit
hey ive got a 1.4 16v 6n, and also runnin solitudes the now, soon to be rh cups though, awaiting refurb 
but yea i think a 60/60 drop would just be a nice hieght, i was thinking a 80 drop all round for tht wee bit extra, just my opinion, but yea i think youll be safe with the 60 drop.
just watch the 40 drop, i done a friends arosa for her, similar suspension set-up to the polo and i didnt really notice a drop from the 40, but the 60 side, even tho just a 20mm difference, sat alot nicer and down right
Go 60, or better, if you have the cash, coilies and adjust to your liking
win win situation

Re: fk 60/40 suspension kit
thanks for the replys def will be 60mm all round i was thinking coilovers but u have to spend more money than i have to get a relativly comfortable ride so was hopeing that a suspension kit like this 1 would be best of both worlds a little bit lower but not compramising the comfort to much
any1 point me in the direction of some pics of a 60mm lowered polo so i got some sort of idea before i buy thanks

Re: fk 60/40 suspension kit
It'll be harsher than standard, but probably better than coilovers.
What 60/60 kit are you looking at?

Ah my bad, thought you were talking about a 60/60 kit. I haven't heard review from the listed spec sorry.RO83 wrote:im looking at the 1 that is in the post at top of page (the link above)
Re: fk 60/40 suspension kit
that kit will allow u to have a stance of 60 front 40-80mm rear the back is adjustable im thinking providing it handles ok it wil be fine i had coilovers on my old gti and they were solid and had no give but then i was 100mm+ down
