Also put 15/20mm spacers on the rear :cool:

Lowering and spacers needed but they look ok in Gold.

Cully how do you work on your car when its so low, mine hasnt een lowered yet but has skirts and can only just get a jack under it now
-
Ok as to lowering what's the best ride comfort coilys or shortened dampers and springs?
Can anybody recommend me some cheap but good spacers.. And a noob question
If I got hubcentric spacers do I need to change my wheel bolts to longer ones or are these supplied or do standard bolts bolt into the spacer??

Get coilies :grin: if you get springs, you will only regret it and want to go lower at a later date, happens to everyone on here! Plus those wheels would only look good on coilies, springs wont go low enough. Plus with the coilies you can fine adjust the height whenever you want, up or down by mm's at a time.
And hubcentric spacers bolt to your hub, then you bolt your wheel to the spacer. So 10 sets of bolts per wheel if that makes sense.

Will look the business once it's lowered and spaced out :cool:
