right i need help
now i have the money to lower my car
i have 195/45/15 alloys
and if i measure from the top of the arch 35mm down i still have about a 50mm gap from where the arch will be to the tyer.
so i thought about going for a 55mm drop wich will leave about a 30 mm gap from...
dont spose u measured from the arch to the top of the tyer before u had it lowered then measured afterwards did u ???
if u arnt happy i would take it back to where u got it from and ask them to fix it as u rnt happy with what u got from the sale

cos they are wound tighter 1 way so towards the top the coils should be far apart and at the bottom they should be close to gether or the other way round.

have you just lowered the front and was it just springs u did or was it a full kit ???
did he lower the back
and yeh it does take a while for the springs to be in.

but if you want your car to look nice by lowering it isnt it up to you what you spend your money on, if you have an idea for you car which may be your pride and joy or if you go and do somthing and wish to share it you dont need somebody coming along and pissing on your fire do u ???
