    Ok I can't help myself, the car is going even lower this weekend lol

    To help make this happen i'm going to change the tyres to 215/35/19s from the 235/35/19s that are on it now.

    If anyone is in the market for some brand new quality tyres for their 19s let me know ASAP. As mentioned in this thread they are Yokohama S.Drives. I'm willing to let them go for 1k, with free delivery to Sydney or Canberra. Much cheaper than retail price...

    Will be swapping them at a tyre shop this weekend if no one is interested anyway, so either way it will work out ok. Just thought I would put the offer up here anyway in case anyone was interested in some quality tyres for cheap

      Haha dammn, smaller tyres to get a lower stance!! Major negative camber next??

      Car looks good though. Any pics of the skid plate? I want to see gouging and deep scratches!
      Past: Mk3 Golf 2L 8V, Audi 8L A3T.
      Present: Mk3 Golf variant.

        Plenty of camber on the rears at the moment. I kind of like that look though so it's all good :p

        Smaller tyres will help inner guard clearance at the front and will also give me more room in the rear to go lower (I have some secret plans lol). The 215s are 12mm in diameter smaller than 235s, so that's already 6mm of extra lowering right there without touching the suspension at all.

        When I was running 225/45/17s the ground clearance beneath the skid plate was just 40mm. Plenty of gouging was going on for sure! I'll take some pics on the weekend.

        Price update on the tyres: $800... Cheap!

          becareful how low you'll go as you will cause some nice damage underneath if you hit anything ..

          will the offset of your wheels still hit on lock from being so low though? as tyres fair enough to get them in further but sometimes will still hit! looks great but becareful and defectable too as they are cracking down unfortunately these days argh
          What’s behind you doesn’t matter..
