Slamming it is out of the question…i was leaning more towards a 35/40 or 40/40…i can barely back out of my driveway NOW without my Exhaust tips scraping… ---

40/40 is what i got and its the perfect drop once its all nice and settled. sonny, halo is right… we don’t really have to worry about smacking our oil pans like 1.8T do and especially the VR6. I drove around that one winter slammed as shit and their is not a mark on my oil pan! ---

Even if my oil pan doesnt sit low…knowing me, I’ll still find a way to smack it off of something:rolleyes: … Hey Whitey…i didnt really take a good look at your wheels, i’m guessing you have 17’s?? is a 40/40 still a significant drop on 16’s? Or, is there still a good amount of wheel gap…because that is my MAIN problem…wheelgap:mad: ---

I am on 17’s… 16’s would look best with a 40/40 suspension and a nice agressive tire ---

Considering that you have to go to mary grace if you get a ticket, I would stick with either 35 all around or at the most 20 on the back and 35 on the sides.😃 I figure, not tint for me, I allready am pushing it in some areas as it is.🆒 [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/pics-of-my-jetta/165369.md?page=1) [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/pics-of-my-jetta/165369.md?page=3)
