I want to ditch my tired combat front and replace it with one of the above, problem is they both look very low to and dont want to make it un driveable - cant go up driveways / no chance on the mildist of speed bumps. does anyone have any advice or know what sort of clearence i would have with my 17s down 40mm.
I may get 18s soon but cant see that making much more than 10mm difference
