I thinking the above set up for now and then later changing the shocks and springs to either uprated shocks and new springs or coilovers. But for now would any work have to be done to the arches if I were to ave 195/45 tyres on? Would you be able to turn the wheel fully both ways without the wheels scrubbing?

Also I've always wondered when you see really lowered cars with the front wheels nearly under the front arches when they turn their wheels to full lock position, if they then go over a bump do the wheels hit the arches? or do they have scaffolding poles as suspension?

cheers
