id like to know whats the lowest i can go on the front of my nova without rubbing?

Bit more detail in your question would be good. Hence the odd replies lol

60mm is ok. But as said, what size alloys? Just springs or shocks aswell.

Have a search in the mechanical section, you will find answers. lol or ask your brother.......if he is still talking to you. You twocer ;) :p lol :thumb:

Looks higher on the front in the picture, it's the angle though.

Standard 13" steels, Lowered 100mm all around with masses of clearance to go lower.
