Depends on how low you want to go. I'm on 14/10s with my BC BR's and at the softest shock setting is actually quite comfortable as low as I am. Certainly not stock ride comfortable but not harsh and bone-jarring either!

Thank you reply,

I want to 50mm low front and 60mm rear.I try to 12/8 spring rate.If necessary, you can strain the spring.
How you set the rear shock absorber firmness?Parcel shelf out?

Thanks.

You will probably want to go lower, I think I'm 100+mm f/r.

Sorry, I'm new here, but I came from the Vdub scene.
No worries it only lasted 4 months, but one thing i liked on their forum was this fitment page with stickies...
http://forums.vwvortex.com/showthrea...-Picture-Index

This would definitely be HUGE help to most people starting or looking for wheels and wondering on fitment looks.

It won't happen if nobody steps up to start it.

It would be awesome for someone to put together a word-doc they had with fitments and links from posted setups here, and copy and pasted it into a new thread.

Once it's going and everyone is doing it, it kind of self-perpetuates.

This is a really good idea and would make it much easier finding the best fitment setup

Hi Shmee,

There is a photo of the front wheel?How much is hanging out of the tire from the fender to you?
My front wheel 19x8.5 ET45+20mm spacer(big brake clear).In the photo you can see the problem.The tire sticking out.My tire 245/40 R19.
Negative camber solution to the problem?

Thanks for help.
