Just a quick question...
Anyone lowered on 195/45/15's? any arch work??
Fitting my springs and new ashocks tomorrow and wondered if i should grind the arches and if there is any particular care I should take when doing them.
Cheers

yep,i am, allthough they are fairly wide 15's. hardly any of the arch lips left, and it still rubs sometimes.

yeah, arch work would be advisable if i were u! tis what i was running on my blue mk3, and the scrubbed out pritty bad on the front! that could partly be due to standard shocks and uprated springs!

that as well! i did like my old car on the 15's but it was so much hassle! 14" will be my weapon of choice for the G40!

14's all the way!
Would 14's rub if I lowered 60 at the front?
