So.... I have just gone and got a LET Nova and have a few questions regarding wheels / arches / suspension
The car is still on standard shocks and springs, im not sure of the exact wheel size but im sure there 15s (will get exact size later)
Anyway... Still being on standard suspension you can imagine what its like (the tracking is also out to)
The front is very low and solid
The back is very bouncy
When i hit nasty bumps the front drivers side tyre hit the arch on the edge on the tread (dont think passenger side hits)
When i put my foot down the back wheel rub the arches on the outer wall of the tyre
Its not very nice to drive at the moment and is holding me back driving it so need to get it sorted
Am i right in thinking i need a better suspension set up with stiffer springs then the front should sit a little higher and not rub when i hit bumps? Also if i get stiffer springs for the back when i boot it the back wont compress as much and wont rub?
Or do i need different wheels that will fit better?
Should i get the arches rolled?
What coilover kit should i get that quality but not thousands of pounds?
Wheres the best place to buy a coilover kit?
When i get the tracking done what should i ask them to do? Normal tracking or toe in or toe out?
Thanks for looking in :thumb:
