June 9, 201014 yr Author Erm... erm.... ? Umm... Do you have any other photos? not alot only had the car bout 2 months mate this is the only other one i have of it not shore if myke smith has got any other pics of it http://i855.photobucket.com/albums/ab115/speedjunky666/SP_A0194-1.jpg
June 9, 201014 yr I think it looks nice what i can see of it mate get some better pics up. and stu you're a fuckin clever bloke but give him a break and answer me this question, what is it about -60mm that you hate? i have a feeling i know what the answer will be but ive researched this a bit myself comparing 2 identical cars both with identical aftermarket shocks but on is -60mm and one is -40mm and the -60 outhandles the -40 hands down, sorry toi hijack the thread just trying to cut you some slack and answer a question
June 10, 201014 yr give him a break and answer me this question, what is it about -60mm that you hate? My comment was based on the fact that I have owned a Fiesta as low as that and have experience of how it rides, which is utter shít. I don't 'hate' a 60mm drop. I just state the facts. If the facts upset someone that doesn't mean I hate the facts/truth, it means they/you do! It is highly unlikely that an IDENTICAL road car with a 60mm drop would handle better than one with a 40mm drop. The laws of physics prohibit it. The more you lower the car, the less grip you have (due to reduced damping effectiveness and screwed-up geometry). This is a topic for another thread though...

The more you lower the car, the less grip you have (due to reduced damping effectiveness and screwed-up geometry). it doesn't bother me mate my last two 306's were down 100mm on front and 120 mm on the back and not had the car that long it was lowered 60mm already so it wasn't as though i chose to. also it came with 15inch rubbish chav alloys with 45 profile tyres on and it didn't look lowered that much then when i put the 16's on it looks slammed even more so with the arches on. ive got to T-cut the over spray off the arches and thenthen polish the whole car and il get sme more pics up mate and im also looking for same wheels but 15's or rs 2000 alloys if anyones got any up here rite money
