Stock height or slammed low

[aspro]

Bloody hell. The stock lads have came out in droves. Is stock the new cool I wonder. :|



Nahhhhh. :lol:

 

[reezvaan]

Nahhhhh. :lol:

The way I see it is - I can't see my bus when I'm inside it so it might as well be comfy and as VW intended which allows me access anywhere. When I want to look at a cool looking bus I just check your ones out!!
Or am I just trying to convince myself it doesn't need slamming!!!

Stock all the way. Lowered buses look cool but I like being higher than other cars.

slightly lower on commercial tyres........only to take the bum twitching out on the bends :lol:

slighty lowered as with adjusters only chris?

 

[crede999]

no one spline rear with cut and turn beam front 3 inch drop :msn4: .........i made sure it was a tiny bit higher at the front to maintain that stock like appearance......... with rated r14 commercial tyres rides lovely no banging or scrapping ..........the tyres make a massive difference ,steel walled tyres rather than nylon makes you really feel in contact with the road

Stock is the new low, everyone knows that - and white westys are the best, but you already knew that anyway!

Would be nice to be cool for once... 8)

The way I see it is - I can't see my bus when I'm inside it so it might as well be comfy and as VW intended which allows me access anywhere. When I want to look at a cool looking bus I just check your ones out!!
Or am I just trying to convince myself it doesn't need slamming!!!

Mine handles, rides and stops just fine Rob.
Although I have spent 5 years getting it to this point.
And after Christmas it'll go just as well.



Never owned a stock bus in nearly 30 years.

Crede's bus looks to be a nice compromise in my view.
But, nothing wrong with up or down - what ever takes your fancy (and tyres can make or break how it rides and handles also).

I am planning to leave mine stock, but never say never (****, I just did....)

Just my useless tuppence worth.

Now why did you have to go and say that! got me thinking how much money i'd need to spend now :lol: :lol:

I drove a few slammed busses of my friends but the ride was more or less bad compared to a stock bus.
You always have to look for putholes and speedbumps ( we have the most speedbumps in the entire world :lol: ) so not relaxed at all, and the difference once you step in a stock bus
A set of good tires and shocks transforms a boat into a good driving bus!!
I like the look of a slammed bus but not on my one so stock for me!

Really need to tip the scales a little hear. :lol: Hope this helps.

yep cool looking buses.... but stock drive so much smoother and you can go anywhere in them that's why vw built them like that
