It should be so wrong in my books, but it's just so right

Is this low enough for you, the 89 lowered with the hi-lows wound all the way in (locknut removed), arches tubbed and additional bumpstops fitted to the rear to stop the arches from being ripped off.

Will probaly rase it up a wee bit, but atleast i know the wheels won't make contact with the arches on full bump.

[1984mini25]

It's already on 12s and have to arse around with bits of wood under the wheels to get the jack under lol, plus the 10s won't fit over my metro 4 pots.

yes they ain't cheap, on my second set now but if you want a set to paint i have the old ones just sitting the the garage with tyres. chrome doesn't last long in our fine country

have you got a picture of your exhaust system?
also when getting it all your cars that low how much work has to go into your arches?

[samsfern]

how low can you go on 12's without cutting the arches, i.e- what measurement from sills to road??? and when do you need lowered shockabsorbers??

With alot of deep dish 12's you'll still need to cut the wings to get full lock clearance, even if the cars not lowered.

[briggss]

[simdhillon]
