plumber60 Posted June 22, 2004 Share Posted June 22, 2004 (edited) lowered 60mm on 16's with 215/40 so neither agree with the 16's but you can get 215/35/16 tyres and then get a 60mm drop Edited June 22, 2004 by plumber60 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plumber60 Posted June 22, 2004 Share Posted June 22, 2004 if u buy 17's dont expect to be racin anyone anymore, think worse mod ive done is havin 17s on my car true, but if you get 16's and 215/35 tyres then you will have a smaller daimeter than the standard GTI 15's and 50 pro tyres Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
