Quite low then 
Is the rear higher than the front or is it just the surface the car is parked on?
Coilies or springs?
Still looks mint though

was thinking 18'' bbs rs
thanks
and yeah there's a rear bumper, gonna get one eventually. waiting to see if any nicer ones come out. and its on springs so they cant be adjusted, its just one height. its pretty much the same height off the ground as yours, just need bigger rims to fill the arches as it was said above.

id love it to be sitting on the ground haha but i just spent £200 on springs so they wont be going anywhere for a good while.
a guy done a photoshop for me yesterday just to show what itd look like with bigger rims:
id say theyre about 18'' and i think they look pretty good

I agree but maybe I'm biased as I have 18s. In my opinion with the right profile tyre and ride height, the car sits perfect and handles great with no rubbing. Excuse the crap iphone photo with my shadow included.auspolo wrote:i beg to differmoojuicepez wrote:Please dear god fdont get 18's these cars look like monster trucks with 18's

I'm on H&R 25/40mm springs...actually they're now rated at 25/30-35mm. I did consider the 35/55 like yourself but I often go driving through mountainous undulating and sweeping bends and knew I would confront rubbing issues.jonnymoore wrote:nodoze, your car looks great. what are you lowered on?
Personally, I think the BBS RS you're looking at may be a little oldskool for this car.
