VW Performance Parts
Wheels
VW is known for their clean lines and German design aesthetic, but if you want to customise your car, a new set of wheels will give it an instant face-lift.
RacingLine has new boots for your TSI, GTI and even your R. A new set of wheels can instantly create a more dynamic aesthetic, with many choices in style, dimensions, and surface finish.
Opting for the appropriate set of wheels can enhance your car’s functionality; lighter wheels, for instance, contribute to weight reduction and heightened handling prowess.
Moreover, upgrading your tyres can significantly improve your driving experience, traction, and manoeuvrability around corners.
We suggest swapping out the stock rims for a set of R360 19″ ALLOY WHEELS from Racing Line if you’re wanting a modern look, or a set of ‘CUP EDITION’ 18″ ALLOY WHEELS’ if you’re wanting something with a nod to VW’s rally heritage. With their sleek design these wheels will transform your Golf into a true work of art.
Suspension
Once you’ve got your new wheels, you’ll probably want to adjust your ride height. Lowering your VW will give that aggressive stance that all proper racing cars have.
Your VW’s performance extends to upgrading its suspension system. Opting for a lowered suspension not only lends your vehicle a more assertive appearance but also enhances its handling dynamics and diminishes body roll.
Lowering springs, coilovers, and air ride suspension kits represent to be commonly favoured choices for achieving this adjustment. However, it’s crucial to keep in mind that a lowered suspension may impact both ride comfort and performance, underscoring the importance of thorough research and caution before making any modifications.
You should only use a trusted VW mechanic like Elite Euro to perform suspension work.
