going to try to lower another inch , so the fender can cover the tire , as far as i tried befor , with stock wheels , i can go all the way in at the rear ( all the way in mean wheels in , going to find out about what i can do with new wheels , should be able to do the same , the front i can go another half inch, so the tire dont rub
this is how low i have tried, that time i can still go lower

hey thanks for the reply. are the coils cranked down? what is the lowest you can go? i hear its 5 or 10 cm from teh ground, but i cant get a concise answer.

i guess i should ask, as far as the suspension is concerned, i want to know if you can lower it enough to have the fender flush with the lip of the rim, not tire. thanks
