Pros and Cons of Various parts!
G'day,
I'm new to the forum and VW's. I was into Minis for a long time and would like to ask about sunroofs, tyres etc.
What does adding a sunroof do to the structual integrity of a Baja Bug?
If using large tyres on the rear, what is the maximum size that would be recommended? This vehicle will be used for Road and off-road driving.
Are there any recomendation as far as ride height adjustments?
What are the benefits of Coil Over springs?
