Arch Work

Post by polocoupcl »

Im looking to lower my CL either 60/40 or 40/40.

I have upgraded my shocks to Bilstein's and im fitting the springs very soon. Just wondered if anyone has had undergo any arch work for either of these drops? Or would bump stops be a better option??

Im running 15's with 195/45 rubber

Cheers!! :D

no direct experience of my own, but from numerous past posts i'd say any wide 15s with any kind of serious drop (maybe even 'just' 40mm) will need work.... just a simple roll, but scrubbage otherwise. 195 is pretty wide for a mk3 anyhow
