Sorry lads. That's not the bulb that's orange, it's the actual lens. (Ok I lie, I quite like it, breaks the front end up a little)

Considering getting 18's now. Want to go lower but don't want to end up cracking my sump or anything else underneath.

Also does anyone know why this could be... rear wheels are spaced 15mm, the drivers side has a little poke, the passenger side has tuck ...Ideas???

 

[suj]

so 18's are the answer? nooooo

my rolling radius is 4mm more then yours

so getting 18's ain't the answer, hiding your sump in the subframe is

Really? I thought it'd be more... lol

 

[suj]

nope, only 4mm lol

 

[abhardwaj1990]

But that 4mm could save my life.
Have you got any clues to why on the rear end, the drivers side wheel has more poke than the other side? It's quite noticeable

Some pics after around 500 odd miles since lowering the front:

Rolled arches will be needed soon:

Sump, grabbed the first thing to show the clearance lol. Engine spacers also needed!

 

[crezz]

how much clearance do you want, fricking pansy, yeah but, oh but, the speedbumps are 6cm tall here!

lol

get a grip sunshine

 

[abhardwaj1990]

I know i've got quite a bit to go, but the speed bumps here are bigger than the clearance I've got , and I want to drop about another inch lol

all the mk4 platform poke more on the rear on one side, it was the subframe, was angled (can be straightened out, but geometery was done to align it right)

I dunno why it is angled tbh, they all do it

will get a pic of how low my subframe is


PS now you know why I got notch, engine spacers and ARB done at same time, was without my wheels on for so many months, as I know about sumps

Awww, that's just stupid. There's like an inch difference lol. Really need some monies so I can get all mine done. Still have that whiteline ARB to fit! May just sell and use that money to get the works done!

What's the sport back?

looks sweet pal, nice work

Cheers pal

if you get it much lower arun, i feel a thread coming on with pics showing a mashed sump and it on the back of a purple trailer with a touareg towing it home lol!!

 

[abhardwaj1990]

It'll never get on the trailer, getting beemer was hard enough and that's sky high lol
