I tubbed my arches and added some rear camber brackets to add some more stance! Got some plans to add some more lows as well as adding front camber and getting some wider dishes made for the wheels to improve the fitment all round

Looks sick Matt!!
What size wheel you running?
Still trying to figure out what and how I'm going to get that look with my 10"'s.

That looks awsome, what's the set up in terms of suspension do you have?

They are 13x7 currently but I am going to get new dishes made for them to take them to 13x8 at the rear and 13x7.5 at the front

There is nothing special about the suspension at the moment, it is just hi-los, camber brackets and tubbed arches but as I mentioned I've got something planned to take it lower which will mean completely changing the suspension

What arches are they matt?  Like how they hug the tyre a bit whilst still giving vertical clearance.

 

Sounds like your going Rayvern Hydraulics then? :P

They are the McLean bros arches with the lips cut off.

And no not quite, been told to avoid hydraulics as they ruin the ride (according to most people who have used them )

Amazing how you can ride it sitting so low.. Do you think that with adjustable shockers one can get the car to stay even lower?

I have hi lows and camber brackets but i can't have the car that low :(

To go lower static you would need to fit a kit like what minitastic offer or cut the bump stops out but if you use it daily like me that's a big commitment which is why I'm looking at other options

When you start getting properly low you'll run into issues with the top ball joint binding up and snapping
