springs or coilys???

hey guys im new to the forum, the lovely people at club polo sent me this way haha... asked the same question on there and got a bit of a mixed response. the only reason i ask is because i went to r-tec (who are fitting my alloys at a tasty discount!!!) and i asked them how much it would cost to buy/fit coilys... they quoted me £1500 witch i know is well over what it should/could be.
ive got a mk6 polo 1.2 and i want the alloys/lowering done around the same sorta time otherwise its gonna look gash if i wait ages inbetween. Any of you guys know anywhere in the local area that would fit them cheapish (as im s*@! with motors) and some where (possibly on t'internet) that could sell me a decent set of coilys? i dont want to put springs on my car ill break them any help you guys could offer me would be really appreciated

Can't really help with the main question but unless you have no taste, a large wallet and a Range Rover I'd avoid R-Tec

haha. just gettin some wheels mate, everything else is comin from other places.... mate of mine whos spent silly money there(yeah hes a fool) has a discount card. so im gettin a pretty good deal for 17"s tbh, beleive me ive checked

u get coilovers mate and i fit them for u

canalso fit

ill be along next thurday at the swan, if you guys are there would be awesome to sepak to you about it, im small n ginger n i got a purple mk5 polo.... see you guys next thursday i hope

Fitting coilovers is relatively easy but hard work in effort on older vehicles, yours is quite new so should be easier.
Also you get more for what you pay for but £500 should get you something very good.

Here here!, r-tec? 17's on a polo must be you gotta piccy?

not yet mate, they're goin on at the end of may, gonna be on order bout half way through may.... im skint as a skint person at the mo so first paycheck from the government is goin on a tasty set of alloys.... ive wanted the set since i got the motor too!

i would deffo avoid r-tec at all costs!! Never used them, or had a bad experience with them, but just dont like them lol.
Probally due to some horrid cars going round with r tec stickers...
