Car: 58 1.9Tdi Estate, 62K.

So... Got a set of 18" Zeniths cheap off the bay.

Need the lowness now, thinking of FK Highsports for the upto 100mm lowness.

How do I measure, or even where, to order either 50mm/55mm coilovers? Noticed they're two types.

Was thinking when I get the coil overs fitted, to replace a few bushes here and there.

So, I know people say to replace the top mounts/ARB bushes, anything else?

Tempted to change the ARBs when I get the coilovers done. Any recommendations?

I'd like a set of 18" zeniths for my Vrs , the 17s are a bit small :(

The measure of 50/55mm is the strut diameter, I would assume yours will be 50mm, but get yourself a vernier gauge and measure them. Most places like Awesome or DPM will have a car specific list so you will get what you need. I would plump for coilovers to slam it.

David, I agree the 17" do look small and the offset doesn't help with that, but from a handling point of view, 17" wheels are just about the best size to run.
