[Haigs_Gti]

Afternoon Guy's

Im new too the site, seen the link on edition38, i have owned lots of vag cars but my latest one is a mk5 gti, this is how i bought it






Then i went out and bought some Fk Highsport Coilovers with new top mounts

[Haigs_Gti]

Then i had the coilovers Fitted




and how it come out




Then i sold the Gti Wheels to fund the new wheels, but it looked like this for a while

[Haigs_Gti]

Then after having the car recalled by vw for coilpacks, i got these



but the rear tyres didn't arrive, so it looked like this for 1 night




so i got up early sat and went and collected my rear tyres fitted and it came out looking like this







All comments welcome,

Thanks Martin

they are the 3sdm 0.01 in staggered, waiting for the black centre caps to arrive as they sent silver ones as the black was out of stock

Fronts 18 x 8.5 et 45 (215/35/18)
Rear 18 x 9.5 et 40 (215/40/18)

Hope this helps bud, fronts could do with a 5mm spacer which I got to fit when I take my helpers out to bring the front down more

The rides good, but it's hard, I got it as low as it will go all round and the lock ring out the back

Looks fantastic mate

How much you got it lowered at the moment?

Really liking those wheels  saw a set a while back in a showroom and thought they'd look great on a mk5, deep concave rears look wicked

Looks lovely mate, I think Im getting a set in silver for my ED30.

What are your tyre specs? Im on the same coilovers but running camber on the rear.

Would love a shot of the rear arch and tyre to see clearance.

Thanks!
