Big J 283 Posted February 6, 2008 Report Share Posted February 6, 2008 you had your arches rolled or anythng mate? mines a fraction off that height and rubs lke hell at the front on roundabouts and quick bends. back just catches on bumps too. i am running tt comps though so they stick ot slightly further. also, do any of you guys remove your inner arches at the front to get the extra drop??

toofunkyhouse 0 Posted February 6, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2008 hi at first it did so i took it up by about 5 mm and seems fine at the front now, it does rub at the back on big bumps but only on the passenger side. i have taken out the plastic at the front, arches are standard but i would like to get them rolled at the back so i can drop it a tad more Link to post Share on other sites
spudvr6 0 Posted February 6, 2008 Report Share Posted February 6, 2008 Nice vr!! So thats what I have to do remove the plastic shields lol job for the weekend then Link to post Share on other sites
toofunkyhouse 0 Posted February 6, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2008 well i also put the camber to max neg so the wheels tuck in more Link to post Share on other sites
Big J 283 Posted February 6, 2008 Report Share Posted February 6, 2008 ooo recipe for chewing off front tyres there i think! i had heard that removing the plastic inner arches makes it quite noisy in the car, but think il give it a go over the weekend. its booked in for new rear arch panels and a roll job for the 18th, to get rid of the rotten scabs. will post up the results.

toofunkyhouse 0 Posted February 6, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2008 yeah i thought it might wreck the inner bit of the tyres but seems ok, done 5k like this and the tyres seem normal! Link to post Share on other sites
Big J 283 Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 i find tyres funny things really, they'l do miles and miles when you half expet them to screw the edges off,the one day, all of sudden, they go shinny! like it happens all in one go on the way to work! luckily living in wrexham, i took mine to demon tweeks after i trashed 2 sets and got it all algined properly. what a difference, money well spent for me.
