[QUOTE="Walt, post: 645249, member: 18070"] Hi, Apologies in advance if you already know most of this... In very simple terms, there are quite a few ways to lower a bus. Depending on the amount of lowering/drop you want to achieve, you can swap or modify original parts (beam, shocks, spindles, tyres, tubs etc). Each way comes with it's own pro's/con's; Focusing just on your front tyres, usually on lowered busses (not all), smaller tyres are preferred as they increase the amount of drop; Getting the bus lower to the ground. Also, after lowering the space between the tyre & wheel arch/tub is now much closer, which in certain driving conditions/weighty passenger, can cause an original sized tyre to rub on the wheel arch/tub. There's plenty of bods on here who know loads more & have also lowered many, many VW's. [/QUOTE]
