    True true.

    As I've mentioned in another thread, sometimes it comes down to the actual entrance into the car park... For example, I went into a carpark that was 1.8m in my Caddy which was generally no issue. BUT due to the angle & the speed hump at the entrance I still managed to clip the roof - No damage though.

    So even just gaining that extra say 30-40mm of clearance would be helpful, just to be on the safe side.

    Guessing they would be the same for SWB vs. LWB?

    If so & your keen on selling, I might take them off your hands

    Although I really want to go coil overs, I'm finding it hard to justify considering my weekend toy doesn't even have them

    So I lowered the front a bit more on the weekend, and think that the combination of ultra drop (top of tyre to guard is 20mm), 255 tyres on 8" rims, and my other half complaining about the rubbing on not quite full lock means it may have to get raised back up a bit.

    It is more work to adjust the rear, as you need to disconnect the shock which I did not have time for so will do that next weekend.
