How much are you lowered by?

I'm currently running 8X15s all round (et 25) on standard suspension and having absolutely no problems.

Getting it lowered around 70-80mm soon and will only looking at getting the plastic arch trims removed and the arch rolled,

Hope this helps

lowered 90mm, you'll probably be looking at getting your arches rolled and the plastic inners removed

i've had my arches rolled already.

think it'll be rude not to try them!

Umm.. possiby not, I think you may be alright with just rolling and plastic removed, you amy have to come up a tad, and you'll have to have 195/45s on or you won't stand a chance!
