It's hard to tell due to the 13's, if you can get a lend of a 15 or 16 its simple to tell as there should be very little arch gap

Just for reference this is lowered 60mil

If it doesn't fit,
force it,
If it breaks,
It needed replacing anyway :thumbs:

Alright lads, new to this forum. I drive a 1.2 sxi and gonna be doing a few things to her.
Was looking to lower the front by 40mil and the rear by 60mil but im having trouble finding kits for that.
All the kits i can see are for 60F and 40R, and they aren't any pairs
Any advice?
Much appreciated

If you keep a look out, you may get a second hand set cheaper than you think. I got a new set for £150 when I had my Corsa.
