Its about to begin!!!

i agree completely! I'm getting coilovers for christmas so i'll take the helper springs out of them and slam it big time on some low profile 13" wheels. Got a dude i know who reckon's he can make me a sump guard.. Worth it? I want mine to be so low its stupid haha.

Yes it is cause I destroyed mine once On 13s you won't be able to slam it with the coilovers. What I mean by that is that you can't slam the coilovers but you can slam the car and it will still be a very good comfy ride

ahhhh yes true.. cause with 13"s you don't need to take helpers out to slam em.. correct?
i like the 15's atm.. but they aren't wide enough and i won't be able to lower it enough..

[MiKe1_golf]

haha. fluffy dice. do you have a full set of those wheels on the front?

[JoshFair]

yeah man, one is just being the bane and deciding to have a flat tyre.. so when i get it replaced i will post more picks with the full set

[Jace]

I believe they're CSA wheels if you hadn't already figured that out!

[JoshFair]

sure are!! im thinking about powder coated white??? all over?? thoughts

White wheels suck, if you haven't noticed. Depends on the brake pads (obviously) but they are a pita to keep clean.
Wheel silver would be highly original, and look awesome.

white wheels look friggen sick with light blue cars

and a old lecturer of mine reckons they are close the two best suited colours to combine.

But everone is entitled to an opinion!

I JUST GOT CONFIRMATION ON THE PURCHASE OF JOM COILOVERS!!
i will be getting them sometime next weekend!! SOOO EXCITED!
they have been installed but not driven in a mk1 before, does that mean they will bolt straigh in??? or will i need to purchase other parts to fit them correctly?

YAY!

Click.

You'll need a few extra little bits, but yes they'll bolt straight in.

It's very straightforward, playing with the height is the hard/annoying bit.
