    Hi,

    I had a look on that lowering thread with pictures of lowered cars. But could you post some pictures of Saxos lowered on 40mm springs and VTR alloys.

    Thanks

    VTS alloys are 15", VTR alloys are 14". So with 40mm on VTR alloys will look higher?

    It will look the same as 14" wheels have the same rolling radius as the 15" wheels, as the 15s have a lower profile tyre.

    looks lower than 40mm at the back to me as the car is sitting level and the rear is normally higher

    i got vtr lowered 40mm i have problems with speed humps i have to slow down to about 10-15mph to go over them and still the front bumper scrapes abit i dunno if its just i got higher speed bumps down here but i think 40mm is bit to much looks nice cos im on 15" alloys but possibly a bit to low but then again just avoid the speed bumps lol
