Hey there...this is a plea for a good photoshop pic, or better yet, a photo. I have a stock 99.5 B5 with the sport suspension and I have a question regarding lowering it. As I understand it, the stock spt susp. lowers the car by about an inch from the factory. I would like to install the Eibach spt springs which claim reduced height of 1.4" up front, and 1.3" in the back. My quesion is, is that figure based on the stock susp, or the sport. If I use these, will I actually get an additional claimed drop, or will it be the 1.4"/1.3" - the 1" drop from the factory?

Next is the wheels, I am looking at the hartmann 18x8 Concept Nuvo's. Does anyone have pics of a B5 on these?? Are there any photoshop guys out there that can help me out?? I've spec'd a P225/40/R18 tire, but am wondering if I can go a bit wider w/o rubbing...235/245?? Please let me know if you guys have any info...

 

sport suspension is already upgrade, so 1.4/1.3 from stock high (some manufactures may be different) … my tire size is 235/40/18… but on this setup my speedometer shows me a bit slower speed, keep that in mind. speed calculator Ã* http://www.csgnetwork.com/tireinfo4calc.html

 

Hmm, thx. Your right height looks just about where I want to end up. How much have you lowered your car from stock?

 

well from sport which is 20mm lower than normal he is 1.4/1.3 lower
