Not sure.

But I would say 60/60.

But it's on standard shocks too! Talk about bottoming out!

Well they decided to make one of the humps where i live bigger than the 10 before it misjudged really. No mine never scraped get good shocks it helps.

cheers guys you have all been most helpful, think im going to go 60-60 on the original 15's.

ideally the one with black wheels in 1bash's pic is how i would like mine to look with a front spoiler too.

cheers jamie
