- lowered

can i ask what size wheels your running and what springs you used to lower it that looks really nice should look the dogs when finished.

[as8133]

wheels are 18" 'Godfather' rims, fronts 8.5JJ +30 offset, rears are 9.5JJ +30 offset. Lowered on tein springs on standard struts, clearance to the spring seat is less than 2cm and the clearance to the arch at the rear was less than 2cm until i rolled the rear arches, its still going to be tight and i think there will be some rubbing on big bumps but we'll see what happens when it goes for MOT next week! Is it ture that you don't need reversing lights for an MOT, sure i read that somewhere?

Good call on getting rid of the go faster stripes. Those are some lovely alloys by the way
