20s :D
i thought they would be the same any how it looks tough but its not for me
can you please post up the part or part no. of what actually broke or jump under the car and have a look, i cant imagine what broke worth that much apart from the upper control arm cracking which would be stress related. $300 arm, $285 labour?
my mate has been riding this low with 20's for 20k, drives it every day and not a problem as of yet...
what is the off set of the 20sQuote:

When i arrived at the workshop i remember touching the wheel and it was boiling hot and the brake caliper was orange.
i got defected for the second time on sunday.. so i decided to raise the car by 3cm yesterday and now its on 10cm ground clearance.

p.s. i got tein basics, exactly what I was after in the way of lowering vs practicality of a daily driver.
Driving low rider it always a problem man, but it shouldnt be much to your car. Must drive slow, especially on rough road.
low your car prolly the best option for me to avoid speeding
this is pic of my old work van back 5 years ago as an example, with just 4 finger ground clearance, i used standard shocks (i didnt use proper shocks, prolly worse than your car).
its my daily drive from syd to country side, roughly 800 km each day. it was pretty much travel on gravel road
i never had a problem ever since i was driving max 100km/h on smooth road and 60km/h on gravel road :wave:
