RE: *Member* Aidan's VW Polo
finally had chance today to get the interior back in. thank god, stripped out is just too noisy!
coilovers should arrive tommorrow, and depending on how easily the struts come off they'll be on this week.

RE: *Member* Aidan's VW Polo
sweet!
Which did you go for? how low can you go on your funny offset wheels?
Understeer: when you hit the wall with the front of the car.
Oversteer: when you hit the wall with the back of the car.
Horsepower: how fast you hit the wall.
Torque: how far you take the wall with you.

cheap cheap ones mate! imported from germany.
as for how low i can go, its not so much the offset. et13 is fine but the tyres are huge, ill find out soon enough though!
new wheels soon so im not about to start spending 200quid on smaller 13" tyres.

good thing about the coilovers is when you do change...you can just wind them down!

RE: *Member* Aidan's VW Polo
infact, opinions wanted:
option:
1. run the car as low as possible with existing wheels, but risk terrible rubbing issues
2. dont run it low and wait for new wheel, meaning it doesnt look so good at nationals
3. buy tyres for the wheels i bought, but sorta decided i didnt realy want, they look like this on a low polo-
meaning 15's and a LOW ride height for nationals?

RE: *Member* Aidan's VW Polo
decided that the current wheels are going, they are too small and i just cant justify buying smaller tyres for them.
should have my 6spoke bbs's on for nationals, just dont know what colour to paint them yet!
coilovers not arrived yet either!
