im wanting to get some bbs ch copies for the octavia mk1, there 18x8 and was wanting to lower it after that so what tire size would be best to fit to them

215 40 18

225 40 18

???

or would 45's be ok

cheers.

I'd go with 225/40 18 personally, same tyre size as the Anniversary Golf and Leon R which are the same chassis type and that run 18s

wasnt sure if 225 would be to wide if lowered but didnt no if 215 was wide enuf for 8in wide rims..

Nah that will be just fine.

what would be a good lowering point on 18s ??

60mm Id say, springs and dampers or coil overs?

... 225/40 18

+1

cheers....

i was hoping to find a second hand set of coilovers but they seen to be few and far between..
