willh Posted May 9, 2005 Report Share Posted May 9, 2005 As long as you're not too low and you're using 195/45/15's you'll be fine mate.A substantial drop will change this however and you may need some arch work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scoobydoo Posted May 12, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2005 the car is lowered 60mm all round. is that substancial!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramirez Posted May 12, 2005 Report Share Posted May 12, 2005 the car is lowered 60mm all round. is that substancial!!Substancial enough for you to be getting into serious arch work when they turn up!As Ive already said your outers are going to catch ALL the time!This is my car on Bathursts 6.5" 15 ET43!!! border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" class="linked-image" />Look how close to the arches they are, and mines a 60mm drop 2!Try to imagine the wheels EXTEND an extra 36mm!

scoobydoo Posted May 12, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2005 u look like ur really concentrating on that photo Adam in the reflection. i can see what ur gettin at. lets start lookin for wheels again.theres the rh classic 7 x 15 offsets are quite high so they shud b sweetor bbs rm's. as these wheels havn't been made for a few years u can only get refurbished ones 6.5 x 15, which r £500 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramirez Posted May 13, 2005 Report Share Posted May 13, 2005 If you want to work out if their going to fit use this offset calculator I found a while back.http://forums.clublupo.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=9182 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
