ok

when i got my wheels put on 1 month ago, they had to use these stud spacers to fit the EL wheels on. Now, this makes the wheel stick out like 2 cm more than they are supposed to. The back set are fine, they will fit under but the front worry me. When i get it lowerd, will the wheels bend in more? should i get the gards liped and flared out? or just flared? or should i just get them liped? Can someone also in melbourne, let me know a good place to get it lowerd for a good price. The tyre factory quoted me around $850 for new shocks, springs and cambers. Firsty, i dont think i need new shocks, they can wait. Anyone who has a E-Series car and lowerd could help me here, i want to spend around $500 to get it dumped, if anyone knows a good hook-up, please let me know. Some pics of peoples E-series car lowerd aswell would be kool. Thanks everyone

after some pics :P

i'm suprised you needed spacers?
a camber/castor kit will make the front wheels bend in a little, but depending on how low you go flaring the guards would most likely have to be done.
from what i've heard, with standard low springs, u won't have to replace shocks, and the wheels should be fine with the guards, but any lower and u'd be wanting to upgrade shocks and look at flaring the guards.

The EA and EL stud pattern is the same, you don't neet spacers, however, if the wheels were the AU offset. . .

Thats what i was thinking, he states EL wheels, and asks to see E-series cars lowered.
