Scott^p · 19th May 2006, 19:10

riggsy · 19th May 2006, 19:13

i know people that have lowered theres 60mm on 16 40 195 tyres and it dont rub

i wouldnt go more than 50mm tbh get some 15s on there

Scott^p · 19th May 2006, 19:17

will rub on 45's standard height though even without people going over bumps/dips in the road

rick247247 · 19th May 2006, 19:21

was thinking bout getting sum 15s, only problem is i wouldnt be able to get on my drive if i go to low lol. mite see how much it would cost to get it sorted so i could lower it on my 16"s

reevesy_vtr · 20th May 2006, 00:34

patrick2403 · 20th May 2006, 00:36

im down 50mm on 195/40/16s and i have no rubbin, unless some fat c*nt is in the back which never happens

Dan · 20th May 2006, 19:33

Can go 60mm easily on 40 profiles with no rubbing plus a full car. I did, the only thing to do is to take the arch liners out.

spencer_cammedvts · 21st May 2006, 01:28

im down 50 at front and 60 at the back and with 195/45/16. had to do the backl bumper brackets and do a bit of rolling on the front but that was pi**

Wha you mean? you cant full lock? Im pretty much same as you an full lock is fine

brainspiller101 · 24th May 2006, 00:22

how come saxos differ so much, surely the same car should all be the same apart from wheel size and ride height. some people seem to be fine and others not. im lowerin my furio 60mm on 15's soon, hopefully it'll be fine

tim · 24th May 2006, 00:28

down 55mm on on 17s and dont have a problem with rubbing but lost my full lock to

3 point turn more like 7 point turn lol

John2Modified · 24th May 2006, 00:36

Depends on the offset of the wheels and all sorts!

Give me a call if you want some advice, we can sort out a package for you

check your offset, i'm 60mm on 15" vts rims and get no rubbing at all, even on full lock.

Tupps · 24th May 2006, 21:14

Im on 195 / 45 / 16"s and lowered 35mm

i can have a full car with no rubbing at all....only bit of rub i get is if im on FULL lock then u find a little scrubage....if i had 40's on id imagine it wud be fine

vtS wheels are going on and lowering it to 60mm i think

dsh85 · 24th May 2006, 21:37

no scrubbing that day and no arch mods
