AlexZ Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 Ok first and for most a BIG thanks to zmanalex for the replacement tyres. There like new and well cheap compared to retail cost. I had the tyres fitted yesterday by my local tyre fitter. When I bought the tyres I was aware they were 40 profile not the standard 45. I honestly didnt think there would be that much noticeable difference. As you can see from the images belowe I was wrong lol. I've had a look about the net and it would be cheaper to fit lowering springs than replace the rear tyre with the correct profile . Whats your thoughts and does anyone use lowering springs. As much I would love coilover the piggy bank is a little tight with xmas so close and other outgoing at the min. Any advise or help would be good guys. Do you think I'm been over the top with the rear gap? Alex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll think about it for a month or so and see how I feel then. Alex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
