No its not, the outer arch is taller which makes the suspension appear higher.

wilson_sri

25-04-08, 11:06 PM

Just a guestimate i think. Got my rears from my work, built stock rods and sotck car f1s. Didnt come with a height written on it so just guessed really.

L33 LEG

25-04-08, 11:25 PM

you can guess by the coils really. i have loads of sets and i know by looking at them which are standard, 40mm, 60mm and 80mm. early next week im getting some 100mm to add to the collection lol

06-06-10, 10:37 PM

Why thank you, but it can be a pain. I have lost 80% lock on the steering and the tyres catch the wings when just comming off my drive and the tyres polished all the paint off the arch lips. Have had to hand pull the arches more and have a dent in the pass wing for the tyre folding the arch back on its self, when the mot tested didn't know of the lack of steering.

Funk it.
Looks awesome.

Bumping old threads results in a 7 day ban, I know because Stupart banned me a year or more ago for doing it.
