Slammed Saloons picture request

[NathanSRi]

Hey guys, I need some ideas for my 'loon. I wanna see pictures of everyones lowered saloons, then could you tell me how low it is and what wheels and tyre profile you've got, i'm having trouble with mine atm :(

[_Jake]

Is yours the black 'loon ive seen about?

[pyromaniac_yeti]

If you want to be able to drive it around and enjoy it then dont drop it lower than -60mm, i reckon if you combined that with some realy dishy 14" wheels i.e minilites or simmilar then you'd be onto a winner!

thats lowered 45mm mate :) Can go a lot lower than that which is what im doing, but yeahh but like pyromaniac_yeti said, 60mm is great for the Euro Look :) 100mm is too much being honest, been there lol (http://www.pngclub.com/forum/member.php?44702-pyromaniac_yeti) (http://www.pngclub.com/forum/member.php?44702-pyromaniac_yeti)

Ive got a very strange feeling you live not very far from me at all. Espcially if theres another Fiesta under that other tarp :/

http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q248/tommy8252/my%20car/047.jpg

here's mine, around 90-95mm on the front (coilovers so don't know exactly) and 80mm on the back

195/50/15 tyres on tsw wheels et42 with 7mm spacers on the front to stop the wheels catching the coilover rings

Goes over most speed bumps without scraping

[TeddyThom]

^^^ Even though that is a more door I rather like that
