-35 or -55 on a valver

[Pete-W]

As title, looking for performance gains more than looks. know that -35 is considered better for performance. Just wondered what peoples opinions on it are and if people have tried both?which they found better?

cheers

-35mm would be better Id have thought

 

[steve a]

yeah 30-35mm is better. Mines about 50mm which is to low as i brought it like that, need to raise it as it scrapes everywhere.

Mines -60mm at the front and -70mm at the arse end, and it handles like a gokart.

GET IT SLAMMED

yeah but you have no suspension travel. 30-40mm lower than standard is all you need, depending on wheel size etc etc

much lower and your dampers are trying to work to hard over to short a stroke. And youll do bearings/shafts/bushes a lot faster.

Already thought of that, and bought my self a KONI set up.

Havent had any probs yet after a year.

 

[Pete-W]

Im running a set of 17" Wolfrace vibes, with 205/40 rubber.

The tyres only rub on full left lock for some reason.

What are you running ?
