Hello Everyone

I will be getting a set of Wolfrace Katana 15's for ma car very soon, jus wanted to know for those who have got 15's already, should i lower the car so it looks good? and by how much mm i should drop by? and any ideas where i could get decent springs for a gd price?? Any info will be good, even any pictures that'll give me an idea of what it looks like lowering on 15's

cheers (y)
 
How far you go depends on the offset, width and tyre size.

50mm minimum for looks - spax springs.

You can go down 100mm on 15's without wheels rubbing if the fitment is right, then all you need to worry about are your driveshafts, gearbox and everything under the car getting scraped.
 
50mm on either Spax or Eibach springs would be best I think!

Get some pictures of your car with the wheels and I'm sure somebody photoshop it for you.
 
Yeh i fink 30mm sounds good. but when i get the alloys ill put up a picture. Any ideas on the range of prices am looking at?
 
I have 15 inch wolfrace katanas on mine, would look loads better lowered, i would but i have just bought a sporting interior:slayer:
 
Does depend what you want out of them and how much you want to spend.

Think the most common ones that people go for are FK Highsports/Silverlines. Prolly best to start a thread asking for opinions on different types if coilies is the way you want to go.

I've got the Eibach ones on mine, and shall be needing a replacement spine next year (y)
 
Hey,

I have standard steel wheels on my car with standard size tyres? (14 inch wheels) lowered it 30mm

should i expect any problems?
