Will these fit a MK1 golf

[WABIT]

the normal suspention has the spring cup, ABOVE the wheel/tyres, whereas coilovers have the springs pretty much all the way down the shocker... hence an extra 1 or so inch will take up more room in the wheel well

I see, the springs start to enter the space where the wheel and tyre are. Coilovers are the best for handling are they because of a lager travel in the spring and more of it? Are coilovers a must for good handling, can the standard system give as good a result? So the 7 inch rim will foul the coil, do i need to go back to a 6.5 rim?

not really, you just need to find a wheel with a 7" rim to be offsets of around 32 to be safe the lower the better

X2 doms know what he's talking about.

i've got 15x7 et31, i wouldn't want to go any higher in offset. (i've coilovers too)

Ive noticed everyone seems to like the coilovers and bilstiens keep coming up. Can I adjust my height with coilovers? Can anyone recommend a reasonably priced set of coilovers?

evorobin imports hottuning coilovers from uk $850 a pop. shoot him a pm. saw a set in the flesh they look the goods, i havent driven on them though... yet. should have my set next week

yep height adjustable. that's the main draw card with coilovers

hottuning coils

As Dom said hottunings from EvoRobin are good, I have no problems in the ride at all and think they are pretty good.

Even insane low like me and Dom its still confortable.
