Yes you'll probably be looking at getting the arches rolled and the plastic arches removed, not sure about how low, what size tyres du have on them?

Good man, thats makes life easier. I dunno how low you could get exactly, but You could get a nice stance that's for sure.

Try contacting a few people on here riding 16"s and asking them what problems (if any) they have had. I know Mouse has them for one.

Are your 16"s mate?

What width are you running on the front? And you have no arch work done?
