suspension etc

Featured Replies

For some daft reason I'm struggling getting my head round what to do.I'm wanting to lower my 6n.I'm pretty certain ill b getting the weitec suspension kit.so heres the first problem

1.Should I go 40mm or 60mm.I've got 15" g60 steelies on the car.There running on 195/15/50's an scrubbing a nats knacker now.So smaller tyres are in order straight away. 195/15/45's? What do we reckon.Would these fit with a 40 or 60mm lower or can you get a lower profile tyre on a 15"

2.I've got a few other little things that need doing.Wishbone bush, fuel filter, a confusing handbrake cable situation, exhaust middle silencer needs changing and sorting out because its rattling on the bottom brackets since I fitted a back box.Basically needs refitting.

Dya reckon get the suspension ordered and take it to a garage and say this is what wants doing, do it cos I'm getting sick of having these things hanging over my head.

Any suggestions. Anyone been in a similar situation.Thanx

I was in a similar situation to you as regards suspension

Didn't fancy doing it myself so took it to a garage

Formula 1(Old charlie brow building) in Chesterfield is where I took it they would possibly be able to sort out some of your other problems too,once you have bought your Kit give them a bell and tell them what you want to do,were very helpful when I went

my mk3 was lowered 60/40 and I had to plan my routes to aviod speed humps especially the ones up Wingerworth as I kept catching the underneath of my car exhaust ,etc

so maybe 40mm would be better but entirely upto you

Hope this Helps :-D
