see u can notice the difference on urs could u do me a favour and measure how big the gap is from ur arch to top of tyre  mines like 60 mm huge cap and it was the same before i lowered it i spoke to the bloke who sent them to me he may have sent me wrong springs  :cry:
still at least i know how to do em now lol

The gap is now 45mm.  Not that much smaller, TBH. :undecided:

I think I might have some measurements from pre-lowered days, somewhere, I'll have a look later tonight. :afro:
