if you're referring to mine.. then no i dont think so, i think its on 35mm springs, i bought the car with them already fitted lol

if you're referring to the tractor....then i'd say rear suspension is like 180mm drop

i agree lol, dont get 17's as they look rubbish and cause sooooo much rubbing if you've got it lowered

go for 15's or 16s instead

my first car! needed lowering badly tbh, never got round to it

yeh i was on about yours, looks way lower than 35! May just be the big wheels that make it look like theyre almost touching the arches.

35mm drop

doesnt actually look too high considering its not been lowered, maybe its cos the 17s make the gap between tyre and wheel arch smaller...

possibly, it did look a lot higher before i put the wheels on and i was surprised myself at how much lower it looked
