Title: Suspension question
Post by: njg911 on January 29, 2017, 10:20:37 pm

Hi, I've just bought a G40 using kw adjustable coilovers and sits very low, was wondering if anyone knew what the standard ride height is?

Thanks

The G40 is about 25mm lower than a standard polo if thats any help?

The only way to find out is if someone still has standard suspension/rid height.

Nathan it's 59cm all around except from the drivers side. There we have a 0.6cm drop. Obviously the time make a move!  :) Keep in mind that my tyres have 1.2cm bigger diameter from the 175/60/13 stock tyres. So with stock tyres the height is 57.8cm all round.
