Re: lowered car pics
Gotta be 60mm , at least if your lowering. Otherwise not worth it.

Re: lowered car pics
im slamming mine 90mm... maybe even more !... cant wait ordering the coileys tomorrow !

Re: lowered car pics
oo 90 is too much lol. i've got a splitter as well so don't want it too low.I had 40 drop on my 6n and it handled great but there still was a gap from the arch to alloy.

Re: lowered car pics
How low ? I'm ordering mine tomorrow debating how low to take it though I'm gonna be driving it everyday and still wanna be able to go over speed bumps.. But I was thinking maybe 90 - 100mm ? What make are yours ?. I was thinking of getting take technix.
Re: lowered car pics
Not sure how low i am, but very low. Can get over nearlly all speed bumps but there are the odd couple i have to avoid.
Mine are weitecs, cost £500. Havent had a problem with them at all. Very good
