    looks great the arcadias are brilliant wheels its amazing how much darker the paint work looks with dark wheels.
    ive just done a deal on a set of silver wheels for the gul so I can see which suits it best

    got the bilsteins and h&r springs fitted tonight so need to get all the tracking and camber set up tomorrow.
    the back is a tad high for my liking but al let it settle for a few days to a week and if its still to high al cut half a coil off lol
    pics soon

    I would re-drill the rear LCA to drop the shock down another half to an inch rather than cut a coil.

    I just measured, centre punched & drilled the holes on a pillar drill. This pic is from Carlos's car from S40concepts. He ran them like this for 10+ years with no problems. No problem with geometry & no loss of shock travel from cutting springs. You could by some LCA's from Racefab but they are a bit pricey.
