how low on the front? - W1ll - 17-03-2013

As in the title! Im on avo gtz coilovers and its lowered roughly 60mm on cyclones but swapping to sp 16" soon on 45 profile tyres.

basically i want the front pretty low.. but in terms of how low can i go, other than going as low as i can before the tyres scrape is there anything mechanically that can be affected by how low i go..?

Having larger profile tyres won't help you as much. But when the car is lowered it puts a lot of strain on the wishbones, p pushes in particular as it is permanently sitting at an angle. I'm fairly sure on the 6 forum somewhere you can buy something that levels it out again.. Drop links seem to take more of a beating too

Add drive shafts to that list
