| but how can you go lower billy? top mounts? cutting springs? raising the strut tops? maybe you should get some little wheels on the bottom of the wishbones so instead of scrapping you roll along. a bit like those heely shoes | |

| Get some 13s with low profile tyres. I've got some 13" cl alloys off a mk3 if that helps? sand them down and a rattle can or two and you're well away
you've taken out the helpers aswell haven't you? | |

you've taken out the helpers aswell haven't you? getting smaller wheels is cheating i think, mines sat lower than most mk2s on 13s and lower than most on air . yea i took the assister springs out well i cut a coil out my springs and it done fook all really haha ah well, i think im gonna go for some 15s though squeeze them under there | |

It is a massive achievement yeah, much more of an achievement than most people here when it comes to height I can't see how you're going to get it any lower without ruining a set of coilies or getting smaller wheels though | |

| coilies are ruined haha, i cut a coil out the front springs but it made no difference to the height so im guess it wont go lower unless i make some major modifications so i aint bother goin lower, just stick some 15s on it so i have ultimate tucking | |
