i have a mk1 nova hatch thats lowered only 40mm...

its currently on 15" cav slabs...

i found out a spring kit for 60mm is only £50 for me from euro car parts....


what arch work needs to be done to stop scrubbage and where in the south can do this.....well.

thnx

to be honest if its loweered 40 already you shouldnt need to do anything especially seeing as its on cav slabs which are the correct offset - its when you start going wider with aftermarket wheels that you usually have to mess with the arches. any good bodyshop should be able to roll the arches for you though

i only get them at the price from euro car parts cause the garage i work for gets all our service parts from them and i dont pay tax cuz of my bosses account... but hush hush hey...

ideally you want 45 profile - 50's at a push

I had to grind the arch lips down slightly
