im sure you all might be able to help
Today i picked up some bilsteins from a ix with lowering springs in them already.
i put them into my vii and wow what a drop.
the front and rear have about 10-20mm gap between the tyre and the top of the guard. wheels are 18*8.5 with 235/40 tyres
from centre of the wheel to top of guard when car is on the ground, it measures 13". From the front end of the side skirt, there is approx 170-180mm ground clearance.
while this looks great, is this ok for street?
springs are progressive type, and the weights given to me are front - 215lb and rear 230 lb.. these are made by these guys www.kingsprings.com
cheers
