how low can i go....

[calibra-keith]

how low can i go on standed set of nova gsi wheels or a set of cav slabs as i have both, i may go down the line of these not sure?

aslo what do you suggest i get (make + mm drop)

cheers my fello nova nuts :thumb:

[Rexy]

you need about 100mm drop lol.

[ANDYRACER]

Depends on what tyre size you running tbh.

My old nova sri was 80mm on the back with 195/45x15" tyres on my cav slabs with no rubbing issues but had to have the arch lip folded and i reckon it could of gone lower without any issues.

But i went a tad more extreme with my corsa sri which was running the corsa 3 spokes which iirc run 175/55x14" tyres which are the same as nova 3 spoke tyres sizes and i had it slammed 120mm without rubbing. lol

[Rexy]

im about 100mm ish and im running 16's

[wilson_sri]

Go for adjustable coilovers and drop it as far as you can, heres mines on 16s. Maybe 110mm?

[peester]

please note coilovers, such as wilson's need the inner arches/bodywork bashing/re-turreting to fit the coilovers most of the time; as you end up 'making' more room anyway..

[wilson_sri]

Yeh never thought to say that. Iv had to do work to the arches to get mine that low. All 4 arches have been rolled and seam sealed, inner arches have been bashed in the back. Also doing the rear turrets this winter.
