              Looking good!
              Just wondering how high you have the rear and front wound up? and how far the front adjuster is from hitting the top of the tyre?

                Not to sure what you mean by touching the tyre, if i know more of what your asking i can let you know.

                In terms of what I've got left to move i have it at the lowest at the rear but can remove the lower locking coller and can get another 8 to 10 mm, at the front i can get another 18 mm lower.

                Do i need to go lower

                  if you look at your car from side on, is the adjuster at the front above the tyre, if so by how much...?

                  There is always room for more lows haha. but its sitting nice as is, nice even tyre to wheel spacing all round.

                    Ok I get what you mean, I'll have a look after work and let you know.

                    I want to get some spacers for the rear to pull them out a bit more to make them sit like the front in relation to the guards, Where is the best place to get them.

                    Also I'm going to de-badge the rear, hopefully it will be in a better state for the Day of the Volkswagen, not sure if its worthy of the show and shine yet, so might just do parking.

                      Awesome! thanks.

                      ECS maybe? get a kit with extended bolts etc.

                      Car looks very show worthy. Just enter it! my car is always dirty and covered in scratches and its there everytime. Think you have to enter the show and shine to park in the grounds...?

                        Hi Dylan is this what you mean?



                        Looks like the top of the tyre is level with the top of the lower locking collar.

                          Yep. exactly.
                          Have you got both or just one spring in the front.
                          I'm trying to find a coilover that will go lower without the adjuster wound down as far, reason for all my silly questions.

                              Single spring



                              So are you wanting a shorter spring so the collar sits higher?
