Soon to be as low as you now ;) Got some 14" banded steelies on now, and sorting the suspension out tommorow :)
Just out of interest, how low are you on the coilovers? All the way? And have you taken the thing (minds gone blank lol) off the rears? cos mine still sits high on the rear :dapprove:
i know this may not apply, but my mate has gone through loads of cars and when he bothers to take really good pics of them they sell alot faster than when he just takes quick snaps.

Going to have another go when i get chance. All this trouble for couple of mm lol :dapprove:
Been wanting to adjust my front coilovers for a while now but everytime i try i just cannot get them to move! I put all of my weight into turning them but what ever i do they just will not budge. Ive tried soaking them in WD40 but thtat had no effect lol.
