You can go another 20mm without ARB issues....trust me!!!

This is approx 50mm...



and this is approx 60mm...



Why would lowering it more cause teeth issues - thats only when you change the shocks!!

What springs have you used?

Its a full kit not just springs chucked on

Only a budget kit made by JOM, dont need anything fancy its a diesel not a sports car lol


Not interested in silly amounts of drop though..............been there done that and bought and sold the t shirt with previous cars and just isnt a good idea with the roads that are around here

Seriously mate - my car NEVER ever rubs in the arches (255 rear tyres) or catches speed bumps ever set at that level. Budget springs is probably the worst things you could of done - will of spoilt it IMO. Get yourself a set of matched Eibach dampers & springs, thats what mine is on in the first moving pic. Lovely ride & tbh I often wish I'd left it on those dampers & just got lower H&R springs instead of going coilovers!!

Rear lights are FK Performance ones from Germany I seem to remember - got them off eBay 4 years ago when I bought the car.
