Lowering

[[c]]

if i lower my car 4 incherz frm the rear does the guards need 2 be rolled?

[bennjamin]

only if you are running larger-than-stock rims.

[seihoa]

yes it will ! 4inch is way toooo low

[barefootbonzai]

depends on the offset of the wheels

[CRDPZR]

yea its been to roll them

[Zdster]

As everyone else said - it depends on the size of rim, width and offset.

[fadz]

ye mate ur cars already low enough as iv seen , so if u wana slam it even more, roll ur guards

[czy_sol87]

4" way too low, my mate has a rex, the rear muffler is 50mm off the ground, that thing is undrivable, any bump in the road u can feel it, i took it around a corner and gave it a little, road bumpy i was jumpin out of the seat and the exhaust was hittin the road, sparks everywhere

[blu3illusion84]
