Lowering question?
Everyone talks about either H&R or Eibach and each of them lower your car 1.4 inches. I dont want to lower my car that low maybe 1 inch or 1/2 inch... My question is is there any other springs available that offer a different lowering height?
Mina gallery springs lower 25mm, or about an inch. Jaguar X-Type Mina Gallery lowering springs Arden for Jaguar X-Type
The thing is the rims I got have an off set of 40+ so I would need to roll the fenders and i don't want to do that... So I figured I can lower it just a tad bit and I'll be fine... Nice car Patterson! I never tired of looking at it.
Hey Sleek, rolling the fenders is a careful job, you don't want to damage the paint job. I understand you have to keep a heat gun on the fender and roll it out slowly. Time consuming and stressful, as I imagine. Then, you want to give both sides the same flare. I've been looking into H&R spacers to push my stock rims out about 25mm in the rear, and maybe 10mm in the front. I would want to stop just short of needing to roll the fenders.
I don't know what it is about that parking lot, but here is my JAG tonight; front view

I rolled my fenders...LOTS of work, and sadly I messed my paint up despite using a heat gun, but that's because of the extreme amount of rolling I did in the front to fit 245s and still sit relatively low. I'm not too worried about the paint though, I still have to have my front lip painted (and all the chrome trim) and I have a friend who is a painter.
