two fingers width between the top of the tyres and the arches, cos its on 15's it looks a lot lower. 90mm spoiler catches on bumps and the drive way so I cant really lower much more - even if I get a 50mm spoiler and lower further I suspect the sump may catch so not happy to do that!

 

Furki - I understand your going for 17's so you should be able to drop the arches right onto the tyres with the coilovers u r fitting - may be easier to get 195's stretched on so the tyres dont rub? Not sure though!

 

Air Ride - na, cars for driving not pissing about raising and lowering at shows! Far too american imo

 

 

Riley - cheers mate, rims need re-finishing all ready, kerbed and some of the lacquer is peeling ! My next job

Handling's good, ride's pretty good as well....no real bangs or ought and still relatively rattle free....

 

Surprised when I lowered the rears @ the w/end how easy it was to adjust still......need to clean the thread up though and chuck loadsa vaseline on them i think

above was a pic. of my newly colour coded rear number plate surround, came out really well. 'Built in Germany - Refined in England' been looking for this sticker for ages, a lot of the shows dont have them in Chrome which I needed to match the top sticker........
