I finally did it, I dropped my GTI on APR springs and I love the results! However I wanna get new shoes. I've never been fond of the Austins that come stock. But because of NJ roads, I bent one (got it fixed) and got another one that's a little bent you can feel it in high speeds. I either wanna keep 18" wheels or go with 17" and get bigger sidewall tires. After researching thoroughly in VWVortex and GolfMK7, seems likes 245/40/18 and 18x8.5 et45 wheels with screw mod doesn't rub with VWR springs (1" drop). Perfect fit. My GTI is a 2-door carbon steel gray.
These are the combos I would like to do:
18"
Neuspeed RSE10 18x8.5 et 45 bronze
