Default New TT Owner

Hello everyone,

I have been lingering on this site for awhile now and am finally an owner of a 2001 TT 225Q roadster.

Now for my question... The car has 55000 miles and I want to everntually put 18's or 19's on the car with a body kit but at the moment, I want to drop it. It does not have to be perfect but I do want it to look good and perform well.

Coilovers or shocks and springs combo? I dont plan on messing with the ride height at all after my initial set up and adjustable dampening is not as important if I can save a bundle. What is your advice?

Also, what are your recommendations on sway & strut bars? Should I get them as well?

Thank you all and glad to be a new added member of the TT family.

Howard

Default Thanks Evo, but I've been pretty busy lately, trying to find you a new sponsor.

I think I may have found one.. what do you think?
