Have to do some maths etc, see whats occurring with spring rates and sizes etc! Thanks for the heads up though dude, I was about to take an angle grinder to mine!

Good luck mate.

No updates at all really have to do most work at the weekend wheels might be on tomorrow if not saturday for sure :)

You drop that front I doubt you'll get far, I'd raise both and use bigger profile tyres

But that's just me

We will have to see cant really test much as the moment because of snow, and raise the front?!? haha

That's seriously low! Reminds me of my cousin's old mk4 golf, he had to plan his routes to avoid speedbumps haha :P There's still room for a wee bit more btw if you get smaller wheels ;)

I'll be putting my 16s with 195/45s back on for MOT time soon, I stuck one against the front wheel on the car the other day & realised I'm gonna have to crank it up a ridiculous amount, currently the arch comes about half way down the wheel :lol:
