Boss Xl300 17s on 40mm profile

will have to look into that

much work needed on arches ?

i\'ve had to bring the front up by an inch as it was scuffing going round corners and on bumps Hehe damn those spacers knocking my offset for poo!

mind, if i didn\'t have then the wheels would be catching on the springs!

wheels... want some silly wide tiny things - proper euro style then i\'ll lower it some more!
i need to roll out the front arches a bit though to do that and get even stiffer springs!

it looks O_o stupid, whats the point in lowering it so much it causes damage.

ura mess.

i never said it matted, i just think its poo., my opinion - what was asked for.

and clearly it wasn\'t sensible, because, if you read what he said, he encountered some problems.

yes i did encounter problems, but there all sorted now and if i need, can lower it a further 2 inches for shows.

handling has been improved no-end, pretty much eliminated body roll and it feels alot more stable around corners.

i also don\'t have any issues with speedbumps or anything else, there is plenty ground clearance to get over things, and the only risk of damage is if i drive straight up a big kerb which i doubt i\'ll ever do, but if i need to then i can easily fix anything which gets messed up!

its actually about 75mm down at the front now everything has settled, and there is absolutely no scruffing!

stu, fair enough with your comments, but i think you will find there are many more corsa\'s lowered more than mine! the only reason it looks so low, is cos i still have the original allows which are only 14\'s but suit it well!
