Lowering my 1.2tsi 6c

Post by Harrisonspolo12 »

So I’m new to this forum and I’ve been wanting to lower my 2016 1.2tsi polo a bit, mainly because of that awful wheel arch space, as I’m a college student I’m on a tight budget and can’t be buying these £800 coilovers, I was looking at stance+ street coilovers, or lowering my car on the handr 25/40mm springs, I have 17 inch boavista alloys. I have found some springs looking on Facebook marketplace, they are 28974 VA springs Handr, they lower the car 35mm front and 40mm back, and are listed as gti springs, he seems to think they will fit my car, anyone know if they would be suitable, if so I’ll jump at the opportunity at saving £100. If not has anyone got any photos of the cars lowered on 25/40 springs as that’s probarly the route I will go down
