I'd like to go on a driving weekend one day.

Btw, this is roughly 120mm all round.



As you can probably tell, the front wheels will not turn.

Each car is designed differently though. I put one of the wheels in that pic back on my car (currently on steelies) with it lowered somewhere around 60mm, and there wasn't much room between the arch lining and the tyre.

People have tried it, and 80mm is roughly the maximum you can go. If you reckon you can get another 4cm out of it then you're welcome to try, but I'm afraid your attempts will be in vain.

If you want to go into major wing modifications then yeah, you might be able to do it, but with a standard panel it will not fit.

I've just thought, I don't think you can actually buy coilovers that will lower the front of a Corsa that far can you?

Maybe you can, but I don't know why they'd make them Most of the ones I've seen are 30-70mm.

From Germany That's dedication

Get pics up when it's done, I for one would like to see it I do mean that in a nice way, not in a "want to see it so I can laugh at you" kind of way.
