Bubbles...

MK1 came with 15 as standard... is the beast coping well with 17s?

Errrrr hmm, when lowered 40mm.. it does scrub a little bit on full lock (or alot!) Ive had some of my arch lining taken out which has helped..

I got a flat tyre a few weeks ago and as all 4 tyres needed changing, i decided to put the standard 15s back on for a while.. (and now that im going to the ring, i wont be putting the 17s back on until after) The ride is great, shes low and corners amazingly and ive very comfy...

Bubbles, mine didnt scrub at all when lowered 40mm with 17s...

Strange.

I dont think smokeys did much either, must just be my heap

Lots of fantastic different points of view...which is excellent as always..

I have decided to do, possibly the sensible thing and keep my MK1 172. I may do a few extra little mods but will not be "pumping" cash into it, instead I am going to save for a 182 or a Mk1 V6.

they are all nice motors matey keep the ph1, the original and best imo,the v6 is a stonking motor awwwsssomme in both versions.
