had these on for a few months now. car needs lowering but i'm not sure whether i want to keep it or get an LCR.
it needs rear spacers really, and a new exhaust and battery, and powdercoated lower arms.

do you reckon a man of my stature could fit the spacers? or would it take a man of men that hang out in garages?

Just found them and txt the guy.For a set of 6 in mint condition and they are up for 90.
Tyres are 205 55 16 though.Would that be a problem on a Puma?

It would look a billion times better lowered, but if you're having second thoughts then probably best not to bother tbh. Although if you think lowering it will make you like it more and extinguish the craving for an LCR, then go for it
