Pete Posted March 16, 2003 Share Posted March 16, 2003 As long as you stick to 205/40/17 tyres you can go -40mm without any arch mods Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pelles Posted March 16, 2003 Share Posted March 16, 2003 id say your best with 35mm or 40mm you can go lower but you could hit a few problems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted March 16, 2003 Author Share Posted March 16, 2003 i would like to go down to 40, i take it its also best to get all new shocks and springs and not just go for the spring kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted March 16, 2003 Share Posted March 16, 2003 Depends on the condition of your shocks. I went for just springs about 18 months ago and I think the shocks are starting to go If you can afford it do both at the same time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colin Posted March 16, 2003 Share Posted March 16, 2003 40 mm, get the schocks and springs, it will be worth it in the long run. I got 40mm, and I wish id have gone 60 to be honest, but it would have been completly impractical as im still on steelies and all my roads around here are awaful, and like to have females in the back seat on a regular basis................. BTW, what wheels did you choose? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colin Posted March 16, 2003 Share Posted March 16, 2003 Not that I dont like em, nice wheels, but I think they is a bit common............. BUT im sure the motor will look excellent when its finished! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
