wheels: et32 8.5x18

tyre: 235/40/18

spacer: 20mm

arch: slighty modified, lugs bent back.

status: very desperate.

 

 

if im correct this would equal to a +12offset which is very if not too aggresive :(

 

 

will these rub?

Hi Jimmy, that does seem to much, can you not run without the spacer.

 

Paul

brakes wont fit, unless someone wants to swap my 20mm bolt ons with a set of 10mm or even maybe 15mm? :(

What about machining them down.

Problem is i got till thursday night to get all this done :(

You may have to raise the car a bit until you can sort the problem, it is very low jimmy.

front has been raised a touch already anyhow, my suspension arm is now actually hitting the side of the top of the chassis, ever since i had it tracked and the caster pushed back. Whats strange is no one else has had this prob that i know of.... wierd......

i think one of your main problems of having it so low is that the track rod arms arnt long enough, so the caster has to come back causing the wheels to rub. bring the whole car up by half an inch and re centre the caster. then get your self some Tein track rods and ends.

i got it all working the stance is ridiculous, i fitted 225/40/18 and yep it is a bit low. Bullet have you changed your track rods also? I just had it aligned again today and there was plenty of length? but i see where ur getting at, that might be one of my next mods ;)

ive got stock rods but longer ends, will replace with tein rods when i get round to refurbing the rack.

 

what camber have you got it set to?

Il take some 2mow :D its very aggresive now. Was jjust giving it some round a roundabout till it understeered and i got a touch of rubbing, one of the lugs still needs bending in which should sort it.

 

Bit of negative camber not visualy noticable.

 

Bad news is my suspension hits the top of the chassis, think i might get away with grinding down the big arm holding the camber arms, its the corner that hits looks like theres plenty of strength there for a bit of grinding.
