Coilovers deffo, then change the wheels

 

[vngtx]

hmmm

on 17'' alloys tho? i bet its them that make it luk funny

 

[vngtx]

get smaller wheels
17's are abit to big for the ibiza IMO, mine are 17s aswell lol
get some wide 15s on stretch tyres after you get coilies

i want lenso 15s in black and chome, but the big question is......how low do you go?

 

[abhardwaj1990]

as low as you can lol, if its not rubbing it isnt low enough

 

[vngtx]

i struggle with speed bumps already, and there everywhere round here. would 60/60 be low enough?

maybe blacked out windows ( thats my next job lol )

how low is urs? what size wheels are those?

 

[gtikezz]

oh yea and i agree with ab i had 17s on mine and i think they were wrong ( ;

 

[gtikezz]

they are 16s m8 the standard gti ones ( just back from the paint shop and what a great job they did ( : )

 

[vngtx]

i put them rubbish 50 quid lowering springs on mine and it was supposed to be a 40mm drop but its more like 20 i got it down to 70mm drop when i had 3 fat birds in the back. i might paint the splitters and side skirts to match the rest.

lol not a good idea to put 3 fat birds in the back m8, i think mine looks loads better with the color coded splitters etc

 

[abhardwaj1990]

im not to sure how low you can go, mine is lowered 40/40 and im happy with it but might go for 60 at the front, 60/40.

i think whatever you lower it by i think you should lower the front abit more than the back, just for a better stance

 

[vngtx]

if u lower it that far wudnt the exhaust get crushed between the bumper and rear axle?

 

[abhardwaj1990]

i dont think so, quite a few people have lowered their mk2s lower than 60mm
