RE: need my car lowered
well next time ya have a rim pulled off look behind the bolt holes along that center ring for the lugs... it should have some lettering.... the size, offset.. blablabla....
and well grinder could work but kinda ghetto.... i used a fender roller... which IS BETER.... cause it ROLLS that SHARP LIP UP!!!!
cause lets say ya dont cut off enough and just a TINY bit of it after ya grind it off TOUCHES THE TIRE and it CUTS YOUR TIRES SIDEWALLS practicaly in half!!!!!
NOW if ya roll the lip UP not only is it rolled up some BUT ROLLS THAT SHARP LIP UP and outta the way so IF it does rubb on a HARD BOUNCE its like trying to cut a tire with a SMOOTH bottom side of a spoon rather than the edge of a HOT steak knife cuting thru it like BUTTER!!!
JUST AN IDEA... i bougt mine BRAND NEW off ebay.... and after i used it i sold it on ebay.... so i was only realy outta like 60bucks after shiping costs... paid like 260 for it... and sold it for 232bucks and shiping cost was 29bucks so i only lost like 60bucks cash after all shiping...
if you can find one used you can save alittle cash and then just be OUT shiping costs.... but still CHEAPER than so call RENTING the tool from some ebay members! they want 90bucks to RENT THE TOOL AND another 300bucks for a DEPOSIT which is just NUTS!!!!!!

RE: need my car lowered
well i never thought about the whole sharp edge the springs i bought from some 1 off ebay they was used they said they wanted to go lower.. first thing imma do befor i put them on is put bricks in the trunks and some how the front and get an idea of whats gunna happen.. kinda blow if you put springs on then not like it n i hope it's not as low as what that guy chopped my picture cause no way... id probley go with h tec cause i do live in the middle of the woods n drive way gets flooded then bumpy dirt road.. but i do wanna close the gap of the fender n tire but not 2 much... 1.8 drop how is it on turning? can you turn like you normal not as sharp? I know really nothen when it comes to this n plus my stock tires are 175/65 n i have 185/65 hope that dont make things harder

RE: need my car lowered
well with my rims and tire combo i dont rub any... full steering lock to lock.......
and for the fronts i simply took out the stock large plastic clip... and use a thin plastic retainer clip which has a smaller head on it so clears alittle more... and i also just used a rubber hammer and just hammered the little retainer spots on the front fenders... clears great... BUT it all depends on your tire size and rim offset...
