Hi

I have a mk5 golf tdi and i have got some new 18" alloys

Would my car scrape if I put some eibach springs on which lower it by 50mm

my gti doesn't scrape or even come close on sport lines/18"s

they're not as low as you may think

Depends on the width and offset of the wheels.

I have 18x8 ET45 with H&R Springs which are meant to be the 40 - 50mm drop ones with no problems.
