    Smile BT's been lowered




    now thats how she should look, what do you think?

    unfortunatley she was that low because of 25 boxes of wall tiles on the back seat, so she's back to her normal height again now (& it cost me alot more than it would to buy lowering springs aswell)

    Phew - thank god you didn't get it done for real. That's too low in my opinion.

    You have to be able to see the full wheel or these saloons just don't look right. Again this is *my* opinion.....

    she's got the 20mm factory drop anyway but once i'm into my own house she's get dropped more (i haven't got a steep drive to go up then), but i'm toying between either 40mm drop springs or a basic hydro set-up (tbh i think money will decide which it ends up with closer to the date)

    Surely that must have caught the bodywork when you were driving?

    no i didn't hear any rubbing, although i don't think she was that low on the road, the other wheel is in a dip (with a a foot gap between the arch) so all the weight is on this side while it was parked there
