Re: 2007 Mk4 Golf

Fender rolling party ASAP??? Gonna need to roll all corners on the E30 before summer mode kicks in!

we go for camping??

Even past the fenders you mad man!
Use a heat gun and pull the fenders out a bit too while you are at it, then they will sit really nice if you decide to go air

yeah haha and hmm yeah, i might do that, still not sure if im going to be doing that or not though....

Re: 2007 Mk4 Golf

Alrighty so summer mode is here! although i beleive i pulled the black and yellow ikon's off pretty well, i am soo happy that those wheels are gone. and i am super happy i picked up these sawblades. im going to be doing some touchup on them this week.




i am just not perfectly satisfied on how they sit right now. Ive talked to a few guys and i am either going to order smaller tires (maybe 215's), machine down the giant spacers (1.3/1.5 inch front and rear) or somehow get a little bit of camber. or maybe all of the above.any advice is greatly appreciated if you got it. i plan on going as low as i can possibly go this summer. I also have a few goodies coming from natty, and going to be ordering skirts pretty soon. I am super excited for the 2.0 and i have already fallen in love with it all over again. also looking at upgrading the suspension for those who know... shh haha.

Re: 2007 Mk4 Golf

liking the sawblades! what size tire in the rear?

[Danaldson]

Re: 2007 Mk4 Golf

tire sizes are 225/40's all around right now.

Re: 2007 Mk4 Golf

I like the current stretch, hard to say if 215 would look like too much stretch or not. how wide are the wheels?

Re: 2007 Mk4 Golf

If you wanna go low danny, I say go 195/45 in the front and 215/40 in the back. overall the size will be minimally different but the stretch will allow you to go much lower!

[Danaldson]

Re: 2007 Mk4 Golf

they are 8.5 front, and 9.5 rear. hmm yeah that might be a good idea pat. im not very good on visualizing what tire sizes would look like/fit though.

Re: 2007 Mk4 Golf

Those wheels... Nuts...... How on earth did you even get them here? Lol. The VW City Golvette
You need to grind like 5-10mm off the rear spacers.

Re: 2007 Mk4 Golf

umm i drove down to lethbridge? and yeah, im thinking i might do that, and dial in a bit of camber. anyone have suggestions? ive been told idf drop plates are a good choice.

Re: 2007 Mk4 Golf

IDF plates will make the car lower so you will need to spin the coils up in the rear. They will probably make it ride a bit better because you will have more shock travel. I think they add -2.5 degrees of camber. If you don't want the extra drop, you can get SPC camber shims in varying sizes as well. For the front, you can either do camber plates at the top, again I think SPC makes a kit or you can do what I did on my mk4 and use the ingalls lower camber plates. They mount under the ball joint and essentially they extend the control arm. I think they add about -2 degrees in the front.
