195/45/15 et35 fk coilovers

[Markd89]

is anyone running this setup or has run it on a corsa b?

195/45/15 et35 running fk coilovers 30/110mm and rear springs 60mm

et 35 will be abit wide tbh buddy about 60mm top on that offset

Apparently the problem is that the actual front coilover catches on the tyre due to the width, et38 apparently will fit with a fingers clearance but i was doubtfull et35 would

i got et49 mk3 astra gsi fans on my corsa and i got to use a 3mm spacer as the tyre wall rubbed the coilover spring

et35 would be stuck out wider they wouldnt rubb the coilover being tha offset buddy

So the only chance of it rubbing will be on the front outer arch if lowered to much such as 75mm i only want a 40mm drop,
60mm on the back with springs but i can widen the arch out abit for it to clear

i had 15" mk3 astra six spoke alloys (cant remember the et but should be standard vaux id imagine) with 205/50/15 on full jamex 60mm kit when i first got the car and there was no front plastic arches and the wings were starting to wear away...(tyres were hacked to bits) obv you got few mm thinner tyres but your wheels alot more further out so think you will have issues there mind
once i fitted 195/45 i had a bit more room to turn etc, before that it was just a joke... im currently 30mm front and 60mm rear with 195/45/15 standard offset for vaux and its so much better... couldn't tell you about them coilovers though

i got these coilovers with cav slabs fitted with 195/45/14 tyres, i got 5mm spacers on front to give bit of camber too.
But if just fitted with no spacers it would rub on the height ring...

call me stupid but how do the spacers give it camber mate, thought you had to get the adjustable camber bolts or are they adjustable camber collys?
