Title: Adjustable top mounts
Post by: Adam0604 on June 21, 2016, 06:57:01 pm

Hi all,


Any recommendations on adjustable top mounts for MK5 Golf GTi? I've got adjustable ball joints so running approx. -1.5 degrees of camber, but I'm still catching the front right arch on 3/4 - full lock. I don't really want to higher the car because it's sitting just as I want it now.

Seen the VwR top mounts, but are they only compatible with VwR Coilovers? Any other adjustable top mounts people would recommend, with a link to them if possible?

They're the USA brand right? Assume no issues with fitting, all just same as the US Golfs?

Car handles great with the Geo they make possible
