How much would you lower your car if you had 215/35/18s on your car and has anyone got a pic of 18s lowered or even 19s just to get an idea

as most people say..around the 35mm point, any lower you would probably have to roll your arches on 19s, maybe even 18s? :D

volvos have a standard hardish drive anyway so it aint going to be like rolling your ass on velvet, you may feel the odd slug that you run over haha

can't really tell you as my car is set up for track, so the suspension is quite hard.

1 other problem you may encounter when you lower the car is you'll notice that the front does have abit of an overhang which will cause you to catch the front end on speed bumps, low kerbs etc etc before the front wheels go over said items. Something I've found can be a pain!!!
