New golf owner mk5 tdi SA

[S213b]

Hi,

First post here, I've owned my first Vw for about a month now. It's an 05 mk5 tdi golf. The model with leather & sunroof etc. pretty impressed with the power, and super impressed with the economy.

I've recently put silver bbs rs on it
18x8 +32 front 215-40-18 tyres
18x9.5+30 rear 215-40-18 tyres

As you would have guessed the rears do have quite a bit of poke, my next challenge will be cambering all 4 wheels to about -2.5 front & -3 rear. And and lowering around 40mm all round.

Will post pics when I figure out how.

Any tips on springs / camber arms / camber plates / or cheap coil over kits would be greatly appreciated. Parts for these things are seemingly hard to find.

Regards
Josh
