Hi guys considering purchasing some lowering springs to take the edge off the high stance on my Gti, I have 2 high options -30mm ones or -45mm ones basically, I want to fit 18s to the car so concerned the lower type will be a bit too low without rubbing?
Does anyone have any experience with these? Or low Gti's?
Cheers

Are you referring to the 35/55 which on the GTI actually works out to 25/40?

If you're going with 18's, then either will be fine, the 17's get lost in the guards with the lowering springs unfortunately and it looks......Odd.....

So the new 30/45 is equivalent to the 25/40?
