Re: lowering springs fitted by VW
Quick update,
I have contacted VW UK and expressed my concerns on them advertising a service that has the potential to send a customers car out in a dangerous condition.
ie suspension geometry altered without any alignmnet checks!!
Will feed back what they say.

I had an original quote of £522 supply and fit, I then pointed out that the accessories brochure states £309 fitted,

Please can you show me your 18" alloys set up
Would it be possible for people to show me there set up with 18" wheels?
Whats suspension used?
What alloys inclusive of widths offset etc?
What tyres?
Some images would be great.
I appreciate this may have an adverse effect on handling so some feed back on that would be appreciated.
