Firstly, it was a bit of light humour, you didn't have to cry about it.

Secondly, "Mega Jealous" is 2 words.

[martinb]

good choice on the 50mm drop, had mine on now bout 2 months,very very happy with them,

What wheels /tyres you going for?
Check my blog for pics its a big difference,
I didn't have a panhard rod for ages,becomes annoying though as the wheel arch gaps are so different. Got mine fitted at matt humphris place at the weekend.

Hyundai: may i ask your age mate?

Reli want to get them on! did you fit them yourself..how long did it take if you did?

How many on here have 50mm drop?
Will get the panhard rod next month lol

Excelent thats what i want to hear

good choice on the 50mm drop, had mine on now bout 2 months,very very happy with them,

What wheels /tyres you going for?
Check my blog for pics its a big difference,
I didn't have a panhard rod for ages,becomes annoying though as the wheel arch gaps are so different. Got mine fitted at matt humphris place at the weekend.

Hyundai: may i ask your age mate?

O excelent! theyre 195/45/15's

yeh i will get one next month when i can afford it! lol

 

[wgc_daz]

got 50...get a pic. mine doesnt look like a 50 drop..think mph sent the wrong ones

 

[Alienfish360]

Get an adjustable pan hard rod, it's not just about going through tyres, your suspension geometry will be off, and will have an adverse effect on the handling.

Also, while you're at it, get some shorter shocks too 195/45/15 sometimes rub the arches at the front with a 35mm drop, I'm sure they will definately with a 50mm drop, so you may need smaller wheels.

 

[Alexx117]

All depends on the offset Alienfish i have 195/45/15s on a 50-55mm drop and they are fine even wih people on the car.

and guy yeah i fitted them myself - the backs are easy its just the fronts which are a pain. i would get a panhard rod as soon possible makes all the difference just watch out with that aswel the bolts tend to seize.

[Alienfish360]

Are your offsets within specification?

 

[joesouthgate]

Lol at this thread :laugh:

And none of you will be properly in team slammed until you get coilovers like i am soon....

got 50...get a pic. mine doesnt look like a 50 drop..think mph sent the wrong ones

What color and what do they say on them? and have you allowed them to settle yet?

 

[Alexx117]

Are your offsets within specification?

Yeah my alloys are from a suzuki ignis sport and iirc have a offset of 40

 

[wgc_daz]

Lol at this thread :laugh:

And none of you will be properly in team slammed until you get coilovers like i am soon....



What color and what do they say on them? and have you allowed them to settle yet?

been on a fortnight...there red..done about 150miles

 

[joesouthgate]

they should say HOL on them iirc. the 50mm ones are red yer.

 

[Alienfish360]

I'm not sure what the range is, but 40 should be ok as standard are 38 iirc.

Having incorrect offset can put excessive wear on wheel bearings.

there won't be a MASSIVE difference between 35 and 50. Remember that the difference betweem 35 and 50 is LESS than the difference between stock and 35.

 

[wgc_daz]

mine with 50 drop and 15's

 

[frank]

got 50...get a pic. mine doesnt look like a 50 drop..think mph sent thwronge ones

What color and what do they say on them? and have you allowed them to settle yet?

and dont forget a pre98 1.0(with the smaller g/box, shafts etc), is lighter than the other models

 

[Alexx117]

the 50mm ones say road racing on them aswel just compare the sizes of the front ones theres a huge difference.

It all depends on the offset of your wheels aswel cause 50mm is easily acheiveable on 15's
