It rides well the shocks are designed to run that low unlike maxed out normal coilovers etc the only problem is ramps or raised man hole covers lol

Just read from start to finish and realised the time!

anyway absolute amazing motor!
What arch work did u need for the front and rears I'm also looking at the Ah-exclusives but I want 18x8.5 ET42 front 18x9.5 ET40 rears. What are your thoughts?

thanks

My advise is buy the coilovers they are by far the best if you want to run low but you won't be able to run very low with the wheels you want to buy the rears will poke to much and the fronts will stop you running pretty low to

If you want to know more just ask

no arch work needed to run the genuine bbs just the front screw mod there will be a thread on here telling you what to do

its all about offsets and tyre profile though to run low
