Now then guys.
As far as I know my car is lowered 40mm at the back and 60mm at the front. Add to this the 17/45's on the back and 17/40's on the front and the car looks like it's trying to eat the ground. Im just a bit worried about the handling and high speed cornering. Wont this make it all light at the back? Anybody who runs this set up....advice please!
Its a 320 cab by the way.
Head down arse up.....

thread title puts images in your mind he he
I would have thought having the rear that much higher than the front
would cause grief under hard braking
as the weight transfers to the front
not sure under cornering though

I was just wondering if the previous owner had rubbing issues on the front with 17/45 and slapped some 40's on, I know mine did on 45. I can't comment on the handling as I'm no expert.
Why not fit 40's on the rear, loads of people on here are running 60/40 and it looks good (with same profile tyre)
Any chance of a piccy??
