General question on lowering

Post by Bigb22 »

Recently I have purcashed and installed a set of Ksport coilovers on my 95 4cyl. Now I'm wondering how low I can lower it with out having to do any fender rolling of the sort and yes I have 17x7 inchrims if a 45 offset. I also have camber bolts to. So if any one could lend a hand with measirtments tuen it would be a big help . I also it takes time for the suspension to settle in which I have been letting it and my car us already an inch. Thanks for the help again

Keep lowering till you hit the fender. =]
Took the bp+t out of the mx and swapped it into a 95 escort wagon. ;)

You can lower it pretty low and a 45 offset wheel should not rub the fender. You may want to use a little more static negative camber, but not too much. You just have to worry about bumpsteer and bottoming out the struts when going way to low. It will handle worse at that point, obviously.
