are your tyres within 3% of the original rolling radius? all to often alloy wheel companies sell the cheapest tyres in the wrong size. worth checking.

yup cheack and ar the same. have just made the car a lil higher and attacked the bracket that connects the bumper. Problem now i had 2 mates in the back of my car today a noticed a arch rubbing noise at the rear, when looked at il it appears the the rear right can just go up into the arch but the rear left sticks out about another 2mm makeing it rub over bumps. Other than chucking my mates out will arch rolling solve this or is there another way (had to put 8mm spacers in to get my wheels JUST past the callipers!)

FYI the arch gaps fill with snow / slush and it freezes up, need to clear right around the wheel in this weather or you'll get rubbing ice when steering on lock.

[unclebuncles]

To a complete non-mechanic noob like myself, how easy or difficult is it to lower or raise coilovers yourself?

I should imagine so, I've just fitted eibach sportlines an the steering wheel doesnt align straight now but it did before. I was planning to get it done...

Judging by all the snow you must have a yeti in your boot? :O

Seriously though, maybe you fitted your springs the wrong way around? The smaller springs go at the front
