OurVR6 2 Posted March 9, 2014 Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 (edited) Result: http://i.imgur.com/oPV6yXw.jpg Lowered the car to a two finger width space between the arches and tyres. This was 315mm between the centre of the alloy and the top of the arch. I can JUST fit a jack underneath if I get a flat *touch wood*. Bought refurbished 16" BBS RXII RS771 and coil overs from www.lowerks.com. Tyres are Falken ZE914 195/45 (I read good things on various sites). Steering wheel is now pulling to the right however. Mechanic said run it for a few days then come back since they will adjust from driving. After he's done the final tweeks, I'll probable need to get the wheels aligned. Anyone got any more info/experience with this? Edited March 9, 2014 by OurVR6 Link to post Share on other sites
CALICO 130 Posted March 9, 2014 Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 Whenever you fit suspension items you will need to get a 4 wheel alignment done to get it tracked and running true. Link to post Share on other sites

Bealieboy 1,625 Posted March 26, 2014 Report Share Posted March 26, 2014 I've driven a car before that when you accelerated it pulled to one side, so you corrected the steering to compensate, when you changed gear, it pulled backed the opposite direction, and reapeated through the gears. Turned out to be a ball joint on the rear. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to post Share on other sites
