Hey, just joined

Post by polobear »

Just to say hey to everyone and show you some pics of my polo.

This is how it started with just lowering springs on.

Then with new rims which I'm still not sure about..!

and this is how I'm hoping it will look.

Performance wise I haven't really done much apart from had a cat-back Powerflow system fitted and fitted a Pipercross induction system which now I'm finding was a waste of money...!

Oh well hope you guys like her and all opinions welcome.

First off mate welcome to the forum. :D And secondly Im glad you hope it will be lower because the first pic to be honest didnt look much different to standard height. What drop was that? I personally think the wheels look quite good, and would look even better with the planned drop. Nice looking car you got there mate. :D

It was only a 35 drop as at the time I couldn't find springs that go lower and cash was short in regards to coilovers. I'm thinking FKs and 70 - 60 drop should sort it with spacers pushing out the rears.

Cool car!

I like the TSW Volcanoes, I had a set a while back, they're pretty cool wheels:
