Deepdish alloys

[dannyboy89]

im want to lower my ibiza as low as it can go and i currently have 17''s on it, i want to sell them and get some 13-15'' chrome deepsish alloys for it before i drop it, any idea where i could get some alloys of that type to fit my car

p.s. if anyone knows of anyone who wants to buy my 17'' tsw volcanos please let me know, ive just had them powdercoated glitter black there in perfect condition

15 is the smallest i would go.

and even at that if you dont have a ridiculous drop they look crap.

lowered on 15s about 190-200mm:

standard ride height on 15s the wheels look lost.

id say your best bet is to go for 16s.
whats your budget?

 

[dannyboy89]

youve dropped your car 200mm?

ive stil got my standard 15s in my garage but they look crap
thats why i got the 17s but i fancy lowering my car to the max, i dropped it 35mm on lowering springs but it aint enuff and the 17s look lost inside the arches, i dont know how far i can go really before the arches need modifyin and that so my wheels dont hit.
and for the deepsish alloys (15-16'') about £500 max, second hand will do fine even if i get them refurbed

cheers

A 200 mm drop ?, what happens come you'r next mot. I dont think that riding on the bump stops will work do you ?.

who says it rides on the bumpstops???




i CAN drive it on the bumpstops if i choose......but the ride is very brutal
however....
having this in your boot helps.....

so wheesht .....

 

[dannyboy89]

so from standard, if i drop my car say 100mm, what will i need to modify to get there? or can i just fit the coilovers and drop it straight on its arse?
