Hey! Does anyone know if these coilovers are any good? and which ones would be the best?

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VW-POLO-6N2-COIL...7#ht_653wt_1037

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FK-AK-STREET-Coi...#ht_1006wt_1037

Money is tight at the moment so I'm thinking of ordering these tomorrow.

Also I'm getting my one rim refurbed on wednesday, taking the tyre of tomorrow ready.

This is what it looks like now, its pretty rough but I picked them up for £300 including tyes, locking nuts and delivery so cant complain lol

Also ordering some VW centre plates for them tonight, should be all sorted soon! Low and slow! :p

Hmmm.... £300 seems rich to me, £200 for tyres from camskill, my tyres or black circles £100 for alloys given they ned a furb and major lip work. Guess if its what you wanted its your choice though.

Well a brand new set of ATS Cups is well over £300 brand new and that isn't including tyres, I really wanted a set and was a fair price considering it included deliver, locking nuts and the bridgestones.

Its only that one in the pic that needs any work, the rest are fine, I'm gna spray them up sometime soon :)

You want a lower profile tyre than that, you won't be able to go lower than about 50mm with 195/50/15 without scrubbing.

x1 you need 45, I would go for 185,45,r15

195 and 50 on 7j alloy will look really bad believe me you wont be pleased plus your speedo will read incorrectly.

It had settled a bit by the time I got home, rear wheels were scrapping the arches over some of the bumps and dips on the way back so I put the back up a little bit and evened it out, wont be going any lower as I already scratched my bumper going over the bump outside my house :x

I also got some tyre shine stuff, cant go wrong for £1.75 for a 600ml can :)

Sorry about the picture quality, My camera died so I had to use my phone.

Thats a magic tree mate :?

If you are on about the sticker bomb books, you can get them on Amazon for like £10

The other ones on my window are mainly off ebay, like £1-2 each :)

Yea, I cant go any lower anyway coz there's a killer bump outside my house and I scrape my front bumper on it as it is :-(
