hi guys, bought my first car mk2 polo 1986 with only 23,000 with a full vw service history. anyways i want to go as low as i can, now i have seen pictures of mk2s lowered 70 on 13s but they dont seem that low so if i had 13s and dropped it 90 will it scrap hardcore with 3 people in the car?
Cheers
Worth bearing in mind if you carry any passengers and plan to fit alloys at any point, the square rear arches rub like crazy on breadvans. I didn't even lower mine and I had problems when I fitted a set of 13" alloys from a mk1 golf, tyres any wider than 165 section cause big problems, and I bet even 165s would be tricky with anything below a 60-80mm drop. Not such a problem if you don't ever carry back seat passengers, but you sound like you do! I ended up taking a hacksaw to the insides of my rear arches, did a really nasty job, I wasn't proud of that.. anyway, even then I had to go from 185/60s to 175/65s in order to carry passengers and that was on full height suspension.
