Jays work log (1.6 and 1.8 v6)

thanks :D I have had major issues with my k sport suspension, could not stop the inner rear tyres rubbing on the springs, could I ask a favour?? If you could take a rear wheel off and take a photo of your rear shock, or if you could measure the spring and post info it would be of great help to me, I have measured my rear springs, I think they are approx 10" long roughly, I have had to buy some aftermarket 7" springs so I can fit the bloody wheels back on, they should be here tomorrow :D I just cannot understand why the tyres don't clear the bloody springs, been arguing with the supplier all last week but not getting anywhere, so I bit the bullet and sorted it myself, out of pocket £75 :(

can do i messured mine agens my frineds new one lowerd my front 50 mm
and the rear 30 mm
-
You got a link for jt tuning?? When you say you lowered it 30mm is that from standard? I know I have gone lower but I thought that was the whole idea of coilovers!! In order for the tyres not to rub, the car would be more like a 4x4! Thanks again for your help :D
