what size of spacers are you running?

[ChrisC19]

ive currently got 15mm hubcentrics, and i love the way the wheels sit that bit further out than standard, but i want to lower it with the spacers on, so what size are you running on your lowering springs/coilovers?

cheers

I'm running FK's, 30mm per side front and 13mm per side rear, on Eibach sportlines.

Soon to be on coils though.

do the rear wheels clear the arch ok? mine isnt lowered as yet and the wheels are already bouncing of the arch haha.

you got any pictures of it mate?

I'm not sure if its relevant, but The guy I do track days with has a 172 with 25mm spacers and has FK coilovers wound a long way down.

Its f**king amazing to drive. (On track, no idea on road)

Oh, find out what setup he has, would be a lot of people interested on here

I have this exact same setup! Handling wise its awesome, you need to have the dampening on nearly the hardest setting though as if it was on soft the bounce of the wheel inside the arch can clip.

I do have them wound down so the top of the arch is virtually on top of the tyre. Also runing the camber at -1.5 helps put the top of the wheels in the arch

EDIT: Just to verify the lowness

This is in a little rut though, its about an inch higher
