lowering on 13's

[Corsa84]

if i lower my new corsa 40mm on the standard 13inch steelys whill it rub? im not sure what size the tyes are coz i ant picked the car up yet.in time i will upgrade to 15's and i know they wont rub then, but i was worried if i lower it on the steelys that it might rub due to the fact that it has a higher profile tyre.

cheers!

You should be fine, wheels going small = low low low =

Back to helping, rolling on 13's should be fine for you, your car and all offensive speedgrumps. Problems are more likely to occur at 16" - 17" - 18", if that's how you're headed wheel-wise

thanks,i will not be going any bigger than 15's but seen as i have not got any 15's yet i did not want to put my 40mm springs on the standard 13's just in case they rubbed or owt,with them having ''chunkyer'' tyres.

Thanks for the advice tho.

yer you will be fine, i drove round for a week on 13's with 185-70-13 tyres and it was dropped 60mm . jus make sure you keep your tyres well pumped up lol. however id recommend gettin upgraded shocks to go with upgraded springs.
