so 100mm rear springs will sit flat with the wheel edge? basically how its sitting now with no rear springs?

basically took my exhaust off going down the road just (which is about 100mm) so dont fancy it being like this 24/7

i only took the rear springs out as i was going to sell them tonight, thats why its that low on the back, wasnt going to adjust the front untill new springs are here..

but im sticking with the 90mms untill ive modded the backbox as it just sits so low...

it would be fine it the exhaust wasup a tad more in the centre, and the backbox was pushed up, but then id need to cut into the bumper and i dont realy want to....

apart from that its fine, so as soon as ive modded the exhaust i think im going for some 100mms as it will be fine for everyday use
