Lowering Problem!! Help/advice Needed A.s.a.p!

Post by AzA2k9 »

k so my current white corsa b ls 1.2 has been lowerd 50mm all round! with 16inch Wolfrace white alloys on,

problem is the wheel width on the wolfrace alloys are larger than the width of my wheel arches,
so when i have wieght in the car or hit f**k speed bumps and pot holes my tyres catch and its ripped the poo
out of my tyre treds! so ive been told i have cuple options number 1 of buying thiner tyres, however at £101.00 each its not very appealing,
and still wont help if i have wieght in my car.

or basicaly get a new set of alloys that fit correctly with a wheel package.. or should i buy new springs or something and have it raised to say 25mm or 30mm >..>>>???????? ...

..all advice and help WELCOMED!!!!!!!
