lowering

[JamieD]

Is there any kits available to lower an rsi or valver by 20mm? the smallest I have see in 35mm and I dont think I want to go that low.

You may have no choice, im not sure how much distance is between increments but i guess youd be looking for front springs which equal going down one notch on the torsion bar.

-35mm is ok.. I dont find it low enough on my springs.. but hey..

 

[JamieD]

how much of a gap is there between the top of the wheel and the arch with -35mm?

Im getting some 16s with low pro tyres so the radius will be the same. I just dont like it when the car sits really low. i want a gap between the the tyres and the arch

Well, on my 195/50/15 quite a bit at the front - on GMAX springs..

Jamie, tbh when they quote like -35mm etc they dont actually go down that much precisely! seems stupid but i think theyre more of a guide! i lowered mine by "-40mm" and to be honest it didnt drop by 40mm!!there is still loads of gap at the front between the tyre and arch. it dropped a noticeable amount but no way 4cm! with a 20mm drop i dont really think that youll actually see the difference! go for 35mm drop mate, u wont be dissapointed!

On the other hand, Avo Springs advertised as what -40? -45? They go down more like 55mm..
