    got the mini wheels on with 195/50/15
    the ronal turbos will have 165/45/15
    have to cali style ride it till i get some spacers for the front cuz the tires rub the coils if i dont have it this high and i hate f***ing with the coils so ill ride it like this till i get some small spacers it doesnt need much maybe a couple of mm or more


    took the droopy eye off and put on the euro bumpers and wired in the turn signals for that and put the round headlight front fenders on also running no grill


    they tuk so nice i love it just need the spacers in the front will probably get some for back so the stick out about the same but then ill slam it


    mini wheels looking good center caps will go on soon

    yes i have the lifted so it will clear my strut towers.

    it rides so so much better it doesnt bottom out no more it uses an MK4 bearing they are the stuff id recomened them on any MK1 and you dont have to get them as big as mine mine are actually a hybrid setup of the two kinds oldskoolvw.com makes he puts the two together to allow for a bigger drop my pair is the second pair he has ever made the first pair are on his caddy.

    but i love them makes ride that much better if your ever at the west side meet ill let you drive it
