Nahh its taken a bit more than that. I wish it was that easy!!! :D
its taken a shed load of work to get it that low on 18's was by far just a case of lower it and away you go, Its got Aero bumper and side skirts that have had to be cut to allow the wheels to move and turn without hitting...
Id say 8j is max, i Know Darren runs 8.5j up front on 18's but her cant lower the car alot before they rub. Id stick to 8j and under up front as its alot of work otherwise
I didnt i just went with the ones that would best fit the car :) the rolling radius is slightly bigger so the speedo is slightly off but nothing noticeable!
Ahhh there is always a way to go lower just a question of if you want to sacrifice the comfort :P
Im running 8 j 18's with 205/35's up front and 215/35's on the rear I didnt see much change in arch gap closing as i was running 215/40's on the 17 inch 8j's before. I just modified the coilovers some more to properly dump it like it is now. :)
