Guest Enzo Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 the answer to your question yes it will rub slightly on your drivers side,because of the suspension set up(panhard rod) when you lower an ep the whole beam shifts ever so slightly to the right(drivers side)im only talking mm's here, especialy with a 40 drop, so you might have slight rubbage. to get around it, a cheap fix would be to buy a rubber hammer and pound the lip back, the more expensive fix would be to invest in an adjustable panhard rod that realines the beam ps get 16s !!

vineygt Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 14's with a 130mm drop...on a 106 tho lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rob_bower Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 15"'s with 195/50 tyres although the offset is a little larger than recomended so they do catch a little over larger bumps but fill the arches out much better!! Still on the original tte springs so 25mm lower than standard!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Liam_D Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 Was on 15''s with 195/45 tyres and a 40mm drop and it was fine. Although it was on 16''s with 195/45 tyres and a 40mm drop before that and it rubbed like mad on the rear and caught the inner arches on full lock.Is currently on 14''s with 185/55 tyres and a 40mm drop and it drives perfectly.
