Im thinking about getting a 40mm gmax kit for my 1.4 sport
BUT dont want the ride quality to go!
The cars sitting on 15 inch TSW's with yoko A539's(195/50/R15 82v)
I was just wondering if the lowering will cause rub on my arches, the back looks sound but the front looks like it will rub when steering is locked
So was wondering if anyone else has gone for a full gmax springs and dampers on 15s? and if they rub...my worry is that the profile of the tyres high so it will rub!
Please help! lol. Im almost ready to buy me thinks

Not a 15s depending on your offset though
I used to have 16s on my old corsa lowered 40mm no problems at the front just caught at the back

40mm close to 15s No way !!!!
Look close when not fitted and at different angles but its sound not as close as you think
The front will be alrite but the back might catch with a few people in if they are the wrong offset.
et49 is best offset but you will get away with et45
