crew cab lowered with alloys

Post by jackskater »

would it be possible to lower my pick up 60mm with a set of alloys with no problems such as wishbones hitting chassis etc, would would be the lowest offset i could go with for the alloys, and would i need to fit longer studs on the rear for alloys? :ok

I don't think insurance companies would like banded wheels on a two ton van
best lowered compramise is 50mm gives a good ride and looks good
