   If it's standard wheels or 15"s you wont need to move anything and shouldnt have any rubbing.

    yeah its most for show i dont really need it for proformance justy to make the car lower, if i really have issues with them within the 1st month ill put them on ebay and get some other ones or sell them to some local chav!
    
    but watch this space i guess!
