well the 20's wont be on the car as daily's coz the tye dsu hit the bottom hat on the strut, iv spokent oa couple of suspension shops n they all said that u cant get a strut to fit 20's, i dunno if thats true, but iv got sl on the front n sl on the rear with 2 coils cut off lol, a bit dodgy, but they are the things u gotta do to make ur car look tuff, u also gotta lip the guards aswell, but mine already had that done previously

run a 225 front tyre and a 3-5mm spacer and it wont hit on front strut.

15-03-08, 17:03 GMT+10#13 first time ive seen the ve's look good on a car. ive got a feeling this ss may help start a trend and the ve gts' will become the new vy sigs.
looks sweet mate...fronts do look a bit slanted though lol. like VR Calais said, good thing they wont be daily wheels.

height of your coils springs wont effect strut clearance, you can get your struts converted to coilovers and will gain some clearance. Obviously then able to adjust ride height easily aswell.
