Would 2118's work with Sportlines, or would it still look to high?

So my 182 is being delivered this week, and I have a set of 2118's in the cupboard. It's running Sportlines on it atm, with stock shocks. Will it be low enough to make the 2118's work?

 

[maynard]

Possibly not, tend to find coilovers work best with the 2118's. Worth a go though.

IMO 2118's need a drop to make them look good.

Do it !

Then take a pic......and let me see. I have been thinking about 2118's and sportlines.

 

[domlebo70]

Guess I'll just have to put them on and see how they look.

Try them first, but I dont think sportlines will lower the car enough fo them to look good, and taking in to account the 2118's are 15's as well.
Coilovers will lower it enough, look at ktec or vmax if you dont want to spend to much.

Worth a go!

I don't think my coilovers are set all that much lower than sportlines (are sportlines supposed to be 40mm?) and my 2118's looks fine!

 

[domlebo70]

Yeah. My sportlines sit perfectly with the stock 182 wheels. I think it's around a 30mm drop

 

[oliver.james]

Can see the height of mine from here; going on how it's sitting at the rear it doesn't look all that much lower tbh!

Looking at the photo of yours, I'd say it'll look fine on 2118s!

 

[domlebo70]

Great. oliver, it was your car that made me want to get Speedlines. Saw it when browsing one day unregistered in the top banner, and spent hours reading about them

:rasp:

The only other thing to possibly consider is cleaning up the hubs, as the 2118's don't have centre caps.

I've still not got around to doing mine lol!
