Re: mud flaps!

60mm drop on 13's will leave you with little ground clearance. I'm about this far down on the silver one and can't get into the local Post Office depot - they have one of those evil yellow and black speed bumps.

Re: mud flaps!

despite looking cool, the total lack of ground clearence is annoying. It cant do most speed bumps, not even slowly. It cant do multistory car parks. It can do 2 up, 2 down on high kerbs.

my downpipe has been clouted that many times on the floor, it has flat bits

Re: mud flaps!

taken some pics.

what kinda condition are the tyres on ur wheels in, and what are they! ive just had a full set of bridgestone pontenzas put on a month or so back. (£230, ouch!)

you got a hotmail account i could send the pics to, they're 3mb, so that'd be easier

Re: mud flaps!

you have a tad more clearance with 14s on a 60mm drop, if u just crawl over speed bumps then its all good
