New alloys arrived
Hurdy:
Dropped 8).........then raised :ashamed:
Took it out on another drive after removing the screws and dropping her a little and it was much better, but still scraped once when I was going for it! :driver:
Lifted it back up and now my fingers are covered in scratches and hurt like FCUK!
I still want to drop it a little more and was thinking about tinkering with the camber/caster of the suspension to get the wheels to "lean" in a little, but as I've not done this before I thought I'd see how JBS could do it for me and then take it from there myself.
Any views on altering the wheel stance?

Yes you will be going through tyres even faster than you are now. :scared:
unless you track the car all the time then i think it is over egging the puddin, read up on the anti-lift kit by mr danza that also tells you about toe and camber, castor and all that bumph also i looked at you tube there is a couple of good explainations on there, if you are into all that. as usual i just glazed over and started day dreaming about cars tits and nipples. :indifferent: :chicken:

Agreed - they're too small. Look more like 16"/17" alloys than 18".

They don't do 19's in pro race - it jumps to 9.5" x 20".........and no I wouldn't even think of going there :signLOL:

I've been out for another drive today after lifting the car back up and it doesn't scrape at all now :happy2:
Even the one deeper undulation taken at full chat doesn't bottom it out, so it's all good and I think that is how my car will stay :wink:
JonnyG:
How are you finding the Ultrac Sessantas so far ?
Look forward to your comments after you'ver covered some more miles on them :happy2:
