Lowering?

[Goodie_05]

Hiya,

I Have a 1997 corsa, at the moment it is lowerd 40mm on 16's but i am thinking of getting 15's and lowering it another 20mm so it will be lowerd 60mm on 15's. Is this possible without any rubbing on the arches??

Cheers

yes it is very possible as long as the wheels have the correct offset

im not sure what mine has been lowerd wether its 60mm or 40mm but with 17"s i get scrubbing on the rears (with passangers) with out them being rolled

maybe thats an idea for you

[Grim Reaper]

but he wants 15's so he wont get any scrubbing with passengers

get a 49mm off set and you should be ok,
you might need to trim the plastic/nuts off the rear arches tho,

i didnt think you could use any lower than 40mm on standard shocks but i could be wrong.

you should uprate the shocks if going any lower then 40mm.
