smithy Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 Nice car! Lower it? Looks like a good stance to me. (What do I know). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cammmy Posted November 7, 2010 Author Share Posted November 7, 2010 Too much inner arch showing for my liking. The new tyres have a smaller rolling radius than the old ones.Edit:After a look a little more like this: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cammmy Posted November 7, 2010 Author Share Posted November 7, 2010 Yeah, I also put down the fact that I have NEVER had a problem with it (apart from a pin-prick hole in the heater hose) to it being assembled in NZ ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cammmy Posted November 8, 2010 Author Share Posted November 8, 2010 I believe them to be ARROW RettrosI think they are 15x6 and 15x7 staggered (7's on the front though as they didn't fit under the rear ;D) could ask Joe (the owner) to confirm if you like?

Lord Sorbington Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 You can get new trailing arm shackles which give the correct rear wheel camber on 2000s which have been lowered a lot. May prolong tyre life a bit ;D Of course, then the wheels may not fit................... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cammmy Posted November 8, 2010 Author Share Posted November 8, 2010 He was talking about camber shims. I believe he's going to go even lower in the future ??) Will put up pics if/when he does it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grunty Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 Low is where I want to go with my MK1 estate.Any idea about shorter shocks and inserts?cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cammmy Posted November 12, 2010 Author Share Posted November 12, 2010 I don't think he's used 'em. He has to change the springs back to the OE ones for every WOF though. Not captive at full extension. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
