Hi everyone , first post on here iv just sold my vxr and bought a white Octavia vrs 58plate,

Iv been looking at what to do to it & have decided that next week I'm ordering coilovers & a set of 18" bbs split rim reps which will have to centers sprayed white ....

Anyone got any better ideas as I'm not all that clued up on what the done thing is with these cars ... So I was going slammed ???

I do a lot of distance driving for work so for that it's amazing .. Just had a baby girl so for her stuff it's great ... It's still quite quick ... Realy it's great ... I just don't want it to look so standard ....

. Hents the post iv added about buying axe ex10's and coilovers next week ...

Tbh I'd never go back ... Iv been total vauxhall head till now ... My veiw on them is .. Fun ... But crap quality

All I want to do is alloys and lower ? What's the whiteline rarbs?

RARB  is rear anti-roll bar, loads of people say that make a massive difference to handling ! 

Lower it properly by doing springs and shocks though

Well I havnt got a massive budget but

Ordered a set of 18" audi sline alloys today .. Gotta pick a make of coilovers tho ...

As on very tight budget (because I bought new tyres aswell) what would you advise ... Iv see couple sets around £200 .. But I'm guessing these will be shocking ???

Hmmmmmmmm

I'm gonna have to wait to get them, just spent £600 on wheels

Does anyone have any reviews on tuning art or pro sport coilovers?

  • Author

Or these??

I know jom are a cheap brand ... But my budget doesn't allow for much ... Of all the cheap brands these have the best online reviews for heavy cars
