Lowering and Wheel size
« on: 24 February 2007, 22:46:50 »
Thinking of lowering my 2.5 estate and going from a 17" rim to 19 or 20".
What's the most I can drop before I have to start worrying about altering the arches with these size wheels?
Anyone had any experience that suggests it aint worth it with these size rims?
