Post by: phil bert on April 13, 2013, 08:23:06 pm: yeah been looking into diffrent setups to try and help has the golf came with low profiles of 215/35/18 on front and 215/40/18 on rear so swapped them around to help with the bounce , its helped abit
people keep saying its to low but to be honest i prefere it abit lowere still nice and tucked lol front end creaking just fitted new drop links , thinking it way want new arms fitting but morrels near me say everythings fine :confused:
