suprised at ride height on 17s

[tomdbomb61_djtj]

just put my new 17;s on my 1.4 mark 2 phase 1 clio and i was very surprised it didnt look anywhere near as much of a tractor as some of the clios ive seen on here without being lowered.

am gettin it lowered 60 mm today, also surprised that the loss in accelerations, its nowhere near as bad as i thort am mightly chuffed so far just hope the lowering isnt going to cause too many rubbin problems!!

parked mine (x reg rsi) behined mates billabong and mine was loads lower! but thats prob cus of my mass system and bigger engine! (im guessin)

yeh thats wot i was meaning it looks lower than the newer clios.

ive not got a massive install in my boot but its fairly substantial dont think it makes that much difference tho.
