Ha ha, to be fair, last year the only Votex bit on my car was the skirts. I hope my car isn't in this thread though. It hasn't seen low.

If that's cheating, then I don't want to play fair.

I'm lip low, although I make it a goal to thrash my $30 votex lip. I like the look of the stocker better.

This is what I hope doesn't happen to mine when I get my coils on

**TylerO28** · 03-21-2011 04:18 AM

Ok
I'm not low low as in "hellaflush/stanced" but right now on h&r premium coilovers I'm sitting at 24"out back and 24 1/4 up front...

I am on 19's though so honestly I think its pretty good, tucking out back and no gap up front. Can't get even a finger between fender and tire.

Tire size is 225/35 r 19 falken fk452

May go to 215 and stretch on some 18"guys shortly.

I didn't take the second pic obviously and have dropped the front another half inch to get it even looking the first shot is how it sits now
Had to roll the fenders and cut the liner a bit up front and take out some liner in the back

**Av.** · 03-21-2011 04:21 AM

you're in the 24's and you posted in this thread? why?

**TylerO28** · 03-21-2011 05:14 AM

Wanted to show you how far from awesome I am ;-)
I'm happy you noticed.
Its funny because most guys in the world want MORE inches, but I may be wrong ???

Anyway like I said the car isn't "stanced"
Was this forum dedicated to under 23"ride height only? If I remember correctly it said lowest static height... Those pics are the lowest my car can currently go on h&r premium coilovers.
I figured maybe some people (obviously not you) may have wanted some sort of reference for what h&r coils can do.
We all know fk can drop!

In any case I hope maybe some hipster can now avoid buying h&r coils because im not under 23"

Cheers!

My measuring tape must be worng then, I dont have picks of it and my car is now lifted or I would prove it.

btw, I was tucking a little over an inch of tire. When I turned the wheels to full lock it makes it look higher in the front.

I am now sitting at 28 in the front and 28 5/8 in the back. You can check my thread to see if I am using the tape right.

**BrandonF** · 03-23-2011 04:42 PM

I know mines not technically an Mkv, but its the same platform. All the way down in the front, helps still and 8 threads left in the back on FK highsports.

I'm sure I must have one of the lowest A3s.

23 1/4" on 18" 225/40

**TylerO28** · 03-23-2011 06:08 PM

Anyone else notice that tape is kinda tipped toward the right?

I call BLASPHEMY! WITCH CRAFT!

You aren't that low... Your fenders curve might be though.

Rofl ;-)

We are going to need a professional do your measurements from now on since you can't be trusted

I promise you its 23 1/4" which compared to you GTI guys isn't even that low. I still have a some threads left in the back going into the 22" is tempting. I'll save it until show season.

**DubStat** · 03-23-2011 06:46 PM

im running charlies old ksports, could go a ton lower but doubt id be able to make a turn

**shepherdgti** · 03-23-2011 09:27 PM

^^ thats pretty low. dig the steelies

**TylerO28** · 03-23-2011 11:03 PM

Remember though, This is coming from the guy that av. Asked why I even posted since I'm at 24 inches lol....

I believe you!
