Hi all,

 

I've just about finished by mini and I'm going to be setting up the suspension some time soon.

 

I was wondering how much suspension travel the front and rear have so I know how low I can go with the HiLo's. (Yes I know this isn't optimal for handling but it's primarily for looks!)?

 

Is it the full throw of the damper, or does it hit the bump stop before that happens? 

 

Basically how close can the wheel be to the arch so that it doesn't rub when driving?

 

(12x6 Superlights, HiLo's front and rear, new but settled rubber cones, and standard dampers)

 

Also attached is a little photoshop of how I would ideally want the car to look (top) and how it is now (bottom)? Would this be possible?

 

Many Thanks.
