right, i have got 16 inch alloys on the car at the moment with 195/45/16 tyres. the problem i have is that the wheels are et40's!
i know i cant drop the car on springs, as the back wheels hit the arches like made as it is when i hit a bump. so can i put a full lowering kit on the car and drop it, but make the suspention really hard so that the car wont bounce at all? also if i can do this will it make the ride really uncomfatable or will it b bearable? btw i got a corsa b sxi.

at least, your learning, so for that ill tell you

u can put a bit of -ve camber the rear wheels, extra washer on bottom stub axle bolt, that will stop them catchin when lowered

ask Daimo, he done it on his when he was runnin et35's many moons ago
