I'm guessing thats about right, all standard Fabia vRS's look like 4x4's

Pretty much.

Just measured gap on standard vrs se. 75mm.

hmm thts quite a diffrence, going to have to lower it anyways looks too high for my liking:thumbdwn:

ask vrs 203 about "lower-age" lol

Does it have the correct 205x45x16 tyres fitted ??

Dean

yes, standard wheels and 205/45/16 tyres

Mine looks like a truck, but I drive on rough country lanes a lot, so I dont fancy lowering the car.

haha nice mate just thought mine was special

needs coilovers to look respectable

I'm sure that newer ones look higher than older ones as well?!

I've seen a few 55 and 06 plate Fabia VRS and they look like they sit way higher than my 04 ever did

mabye this is because the springs are worn in a bit better on yours :confused:

On mine its about 1mm.

you have a gap? get it lowered!!

Just for a bit of info, the gap on my car (54'reg, NO spare wheel, junk in the boot, or fuel haha, 5mm tread) with eibach springs is 45mm from top of tyre, to the arch. Thats front and rear too.

Anyone else with Eibachs got similar results to that?

Si.

The gaps on mine are 55mm. front & back. Have Eibach -25mm. springs.
