I have a 3dr on GAZ coilovers and fitted with comp CXN split rims (if there the comps your asking about??)

The front and rear arches have had the plastic kit trimmed right back and all 4 arches rolled using a tool

I like to run the car as low at the front as possible and higher at the back

My wheels are front 7.5x17 ET30 205/40 and rear 8.5x17 ET22 215/40

My wheels are the old style so have brake clearance issues so can only run max 330mm
