Yo

 

I bought my car lowered, but don't know how much it is lowered by!

 

Is there a way of measuring the car to find out how much it is lowered,

 

maybe a diagram or sum-thing would be nice lol

 

 

Thanks

Here is a pic i took a little while ago, no please with here at the moment , but its working in progress.

 

The wheels on here are 17" Autostrada , and tyres are Falkens 245 40 17 at front and 265 45 17 at back

 

The suspension is tokico HD I think but don't know the size of the springs.

A little lowering goes a long way on a zed lol I remembering being 17 and my mates dropping their lame hatches by 60 70 or even 80mm, just to be a simular ride height to the zed on 20 odd mm

The reason why is im still thinking about the 18" 9.5 j alloys im getting for it ,plus the tyres which i was thinking 235 40 18 at front 245 40 18 at back is it gonna be a tight fit , or am i gonna

 

have to get the arches rolled any way?

Depends on the offset of the alloys. Im has 9.5" 275-35-19R and had no rubbing what so ever :)

isnt 245 way to narrow for a 9.5" should be looking at 265 imo. that will give a little stretch on the tyre wall. thats why when i put new ones on i went for 275 which gave a nice flat tyre wall :)

well the offset is going to be +20 and yess they are too narrow i was advised 245 to 265

Are you sure it's lowered?I have 350z wheels 245 45 18s on the rear and I have around 15mm clarance between the tyre and arch.
