Best Looking Alloys Lowering Height

Post by JW1 »

Just about to pick up a T25 1991 Cali Westfalia.

What alloys would you suggest I get to allow the door to open normally, would I need spacers etc.

Also how much would you recommend lowering?

Is it already lowered 30mm

as that was an option with caravelles

re alloys... there's a huge choice but the JK ones are pants... and BRMs look daft in my opinion

Mercedes ML fit great with no drama

Beg to differ there Kev, Westies are standard height springs.

Mines is lowered by 50mm, and has VW Atiwe standard alloys, only 14", but I think they look the biz,
