Post your suspension / wheel setup

[Ben Seabrook 4]

OK we seem to have had a few will these fit etc etc posts recently so I thought we should build up a database of what suspension / wheels people are running to give everyone an idea of what they can get under or alongside their arches :)

So, no chat, just a list like this and please include all details !!

---------

Suspension - FK Highsports, with a 60mm drop

Wheels - 16 by 8 TH Mono Compomotive et 30

Tyres - 194/45/16 Toyo T1R's

Arch work - front none, rears pulled

Issues - none apart from a slight scrubbing on full lock.

Fantastic idea Ben, I have included ET and that i run adapters, so would be worth doing to help people

Suspension - KONI coilovers, unsure of drop but low

Wheels - Porsche 928 S2 9x16 ET 57.x with 25mm adapters. OR 7x15 Comp MO ET20

Tyres - Pirelli Pzero 195/45 16s on 928s and TOYO R888 195/50 15s on comps

Arch work - rolled all round

Issues - None with Porsche rims, sit spot on. Slight rubbing on rears with R888 but thats on track
