Lowered and spacered?

Post by GAZ-MAN » Sun Oct 25, 2015 10:34 am

Hi everyone, has anyone got any pics of a lowered avant with spacers? Seriously considering this as my next mod, I de-chromed around the Windows yesterday with gloss black vinyl just waiting to get front bumper painted and I'll get grill surround done black aswell

However looks like they've raised the price quite a bit...

It's personal taste. However I always like to see the top of the tyre with a gap to the wing. Sorry Classba but that's too low for me.

I was in the back of Classba's car when he took us on a 4 up demonstration of the 9xxPS, I was very surprised at the ride quality, the road surface wasn't great either. I didn't hear any rubbing mid corner with more than a bit of throttle on! :notworthy:

Thanks Si and yes, the ride is surprisingly very good considering what I have done to the car riding on 22" with rubber bands. The OEM DRC masks a lot of the usual harshness associated with lowered big wheels with hardly any tire lol :)

See you at the next meet :)
