Default Capri - advise on rolled arches for bigger wheels and lowering...

So I have a mk3 Capri, it’s currently a painted rolling shell.

I want to fit these wheels (that I already have) they are 8.15 and an offset of -8





What’s involved with “rolling and flairing” the arches? I know I sound like a 17yr old with a Corsa Sxi when I say this- but can I use the arch rolling tool that bolts to the wheel hub that’s 30 quid on eBay?

To get it low, I was going to buy coilovers all round. What’s involved in removing the leaf springs and fitting coilovers to the rear?

Thanks in advance. I was hoping to make it sit something like this..





Cheers!
