DarkStryder360 Posted July 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 nice choose, he didn't do ought, there just standard arches.tyres poke out a little but thts goodbut looks so much better when the arch is 30mm away from tyre Cheers for giving me the link to his thread, I was looking for it yesterday agh It looks smart, and I guess I could do with a bit more than 30ml lower lolsOnly thing is it doesn't look as if there is as much poke as mine, but probably because I have monster truck wheels it doesn't help LOL makes it look larger than it actually is I expect.Anyone know of any good springs then?I see philj pop up alot, seem to be a round choice for alot of people.. As matty suggests at the top... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dj_lupz Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 "Only thing is it doesn't look as if there is as much poke as mine"u mean width??he's runnin 7J on front and 8's on rears with 175/50/13 all aroundI got recomended philj coilovers but opted for the fk hight sportsNot hurd of many people opting for springs might as well wait, save up and spend £200/£300 on some 1/2 decent coilys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it may just be the angle of the shot lol. I saw FK's on VenomMotorsport.com, bloomin' £300 odd... sheesh. But you can adjust the height at any time cant you? Are the the way to go then?

DarkStryder360 Posted July 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 Plan ruined.Got all the bolts ordered, coming tomorrow. Planned to whack my wheels on tomorrow, still with the poke at the rear. Then mother dear comes home, has a go at me about how the insurance company hasnt got back to us, after like 6/7 months.. hmm.. about whether lowering is going to affect it. Then she goes on about how the cars' in her name so that if I get pulled by the police, points will go on her license, or I will get some either way. Pointless me putting the fronts on tomorrow, when she wont allow me to have the rears on. 7x13 on front with bog standard steelies on the rear. For how long too? I was told by the garage to get archs from Polos n' Golfs just to mould on so tread isn't showing, but thats just more n more money. Forkin helllll Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
