Ride Height - How low to go ?
Hi,
I recently had KW's superbly fitted by Grizz at Unit 20 and I have been playing about with the ride height, but cant make my mind up where to set it at.
Just wondering what other people have their cars set at ?
KW Paperwork says between 340mm and 360mm from centre of hub to wheel arch.
I have the front set at 337mm (outside of what the paperwork says I know) and the back at 343mm (give a bit extra for the kids!).
Any ideas / opinions welcome....................
