Any plans on lowering it? How rough is the ride with the limited sidewall on the tires?

Hi!

Nice pictures! Post more please...

Oh, you sold one, but fortunately you still got one
That white color is so beautiful!

But I´m also wondering, is it rough to drive with such big rims? My Bug has 17" summer rims, I suppose I don´t want to go any bigger ones, because our roads are not so smooth here.

Depends on the tire IMO. I run on 18's and it's lowered with stiffer struts/shocks. So when I had the "runflat" tires, it was REAALLY rough. But it's not terrible now that I don't have runflats. It's still rougher than stock but tolerable. I run a 40 sidewall, I would imagine with the 20's it would be a 30 or at most 35 sidewall.

I do agree, it must be lowered with those big wheels!

yes it is rough to drive with such big rims!but i like so much my car with big rims!! the roads in Brazil are not so smooth too. but i decided to put the rims, and drive slowly, i use this car , only in weekends .

yes in the 20's, i use today 35 sidewall, in the other old rims i used 30 , and i can´t drive my car,it was REAALLY rough ( similar RUNFLAT tires)

i´m sorry , about my english , i try to do my best
