as stated in the title. Im wanting to see this kit with 18s on and how well it sits when its lowered. For those of you with this kit and 18s how much have you lowered your car and does it cause any problems for you?

17's bout 60mm on coilovers, was terrible for wheels catching the front, have since put a load of negative camber on the front and had to raise it. Makes it worse coz i had to use spacers on the front wheels to clear the spring platform.
