  • setting up my mk2

    just looking for some advice here guys

    iv an 86 mk2 golf
    iv a set of 13x8 weller steel wheels with major dish on 165/55 nankangs


    gmax springs at the moment (high as a kite for NCT test) but am waiting on a delivery of fk coilovers

    any tips ye could recommend for getting the right stance? camber etc
    thinking of running plastic arches so shouldnt be sticking out as far from the arches

    any help appreciated guys

        now has crosshair headlights, subaru sti seats, stripped rear, rear strut brace, pink engine bay (i like to be different) upgraded to 1.3 5-speed as opposed to 4-speed!
        also have a polo gt cam to go in to her, and setting up a set of bike carbs! just until it becomes a classic next year, then a 20vt droped in hopefully, classic insurance ftw

                  Gr.H style arches or wheels with higher offset to get the wheels under the arches without a mile of poke

                  a 195/45 would make the sidewalls look better IMHO

                    gr.h style arches?
                    sorry im a bit of a noob!
                    definatly keeping the wheels though
                    also how are ye cambering mk2's?
                    i have camber bolts for the front...........-1 or -1.5 MAX
                    have camber shims for the back but they arent much better, thinking of rocking the "spacers" method, but any other, non pocket raping, methods?
