lowering it completly down for it, then puting it to standard afterwards.

Ditto!
I bet you mine will be lower though!!
GTi inters is only about 8 miles or so from my house on slow roads, so I'll put up with driveshafts rubbing
Can't wait tbh enjoy the polo for the show and then get looking for a new car
bet you can't either! still going for the VRs I'm guessing?

What's the spec of the wheels are tyres mate?
It is a little different I'll give you that!
When you say hand tight? Is that brake bar tight? If not I'd get one straight on there mate.
I used to tighten mine up with a hand sized allen key, not good at all! they came close to falling off too many times.
