I have just brought some 17s for my corsa and was wondering how hard it will be to lower it 60mm? Would there be alot of work needed to get them to fit?
Thanks

ive got 17s lowered 60m, has has arches cut down slightly and bonded on, all bolts removed, nothing mayor tho, hammered the rear arches out aswell just using a block of wood and bashing then cutting the very little edge off

teehee love it when old topics spring back from the death.
think broster had a 100mm drop (iirc)...but think he then went for 70mm. 40mm was low enough in my 1.4 to make speed bumps an idea exhaust adjustment tool
