Lowering on 17s

[E30_droptop]

Hi,

I have currently got 17s on my car alpinas but the front seems a bit too high and the back is dropped but i want to drop it a bit more, i dont no how much it has been dropped as when i bought the car it was already like this..

i have got sum azevs now and i want to drop the car so that it sits over the tyre, both front and back

Will this cause major rubbing?

and also whats the best drop to do, 60 front and back?



Thanks


This is what it currently looks like (these are the onli pics ive got so i hope you can tell the drop)

[snoops]

that looks like 40mm, drop it 60mm which will fill the arch at the back but maybe not the front

60mm looks with 17s

it shouldn't cause any rubbing at all depends on the tyre size your using

I've gone for a 70mm front 50mm back so that the front arch is filled and the back will go down and level out when people are in the car

looking at ur pic id guess a 40mm drop at prez

alot of people run 60front 40 rear, i know more than 40mm on my cab on the rear would cause wheel rubbing
