Sportif EP91 1997 Spring gap fix?

[lookout_5-0]

Hi

I have put a new set of 17 inch alloy on the car and need to stop these wheels catching on the on the front arch.

I have had a look into these:-

I'm wondering whether they would be a good fix and also what the spring gap is on the sportif / standard .

Cheers

your answer is you've put 17's on the car

these are more often used on caravans to keep them solid. these actually raise your rise hide lol. better getting a set of wheels that fit or rolling the archs

I realise that but would this sort the problem out?

Thanks UKSO

depends how bad its catching and what size spring raisers you get. as a side effect these will make the ride extremely harsh

not something ive ever herd discussed to be honest most people aim to drop them on there arse so run after market springs

starlets should have wheels no bigger than 16s tbh, 17s kill performance and make it handle like a boat am afraid dude
