I drive this car .. http://www.tigerstyle.co.uk/poloforum/v ... .php?t=783
What I want to know is the following , I have 195/50/15 TWT in ZA http://www.twt.to/ tires !
The car has shortened gas shocks front and rear , the total drop is as follows !
Left Rear - 50mm , Right Rear - 50mm
Left Front - 49mm , Right Front - 53mm
Now bearing in mind that this is a 1.4 and there is only a gearbox on the left hand side and just about every other part of the motor on the right hand side , is it possible to even this out.
If the car is in motion , it is not noticeable at all , however one it comes to a stop , and I ( since I lowered it ) look at the gaps , the left front just irritates me ( handling for track days and gymkhanas are fine )
I'm thinking of getting a 60mm springs for the front wheels , looking at my pictures supplied , is this advisable !
Here are 2 more pics to help in advising me !
advice needed on further lowering !

you could try fitting a bigger battery which may also make the car a little more stable upon entering corners as the weight balence will be much better (from the sounds of things it isnt great right now) otherwise i dont think theres much you can do but remember that when your in the car it will lower the drivers side a little
remember though that if you do somthing to the left of the suspension then you must do the same to the right as if you dont then you handleing will be very wierd

I guess that with 40-profile tyres you can drop it like there's no tomorrow. Especially on coilovers. I think we had a discussion on coilovers a while back...
