Palmers Wheel Discussion - Feedback Welcomed!
Right guys,
Ive been looking at getting some new wheels for the 8. Ideally, I don't want to loose any height on the car as my drive has a hump in the middle, and being a LWB car (in general not by model) it can occasionally clip the middle and scrape. This is when I reverse up the slant, there is a way that includes me bumping up the curb and it will never scrape, even if a fair bit lower. but I do not like doing this. This is me parked after driving and bumping up the curb: As you can see, next door has lowered the right hand side but the left hand still has too bump up. My question would be: I have always been told repeated bumping up curbs can cause suspension issues - but surely if im doing it really slowly it shouldn't be an issue? Now that's cleared up: WHEELS! The car dwarfs its 19's at the moment. Ive seen a lovely car on here with 20's lowered by 70mm, and ive also seen a nice one with 22's. 20's are obviously the cheaper option, for rims and tyres, and choice to be honest. Someone has mentioned that a 70mm drop will require drop links. Anyone have any info on this? Also, how much can u lower the car by on vag com?? Wheels im considering so far: |
