  • Lowering How low should I go

    Hi chaps
    Was thinking of lowering my Rs2 by 1.5 inches all round but haven't seen many cars resently to ask how low they are and what they look like. Hope this makes sense, so anyone willing to show me some pictures of their cars and let me know how low they are. At the moment I have standard size tyres but would eventually like to go for over sized tyres on the standards rims. Any pic's / ideas welcome
    Cheers

    Andy-i reckon most people go for a 2" drop. I did, most other's do also, any more affects handling i think.

    Cheers, John

        I peronally like the "Arse on the ground" stance!!!!! 1.5 to 2" drop at the rear. Always kept the front standard height.

              Cheers chaps, now I'm thinking of going for a 2 inch drop all round looks OK on the yellow peril so I may have to copy you. Is it worth me up grading the spring poundage to say 170lb on the front if Iam to drop this amount and will I have to uprate the rear springs as well.
