i'm seriously considering lowering my car 60mm on standard wheels at the moment, but in the near future getting some 14" rally style wheels. would i encounter any serious problems?
i have no skirts, but soon i'll have a modded 'standard' front bumper (not much lower than it was origionally).
i'm going for a road rally style, all colourcoded silver, on the deck, small wheels, rollcage, and rally style front.

i had my GSi lowered 60mm on the standard GSi alloys. i thought it looked good, but then wen i got my 16's, i realised that proper decent sized alloys 16/17'' are the way forward!!
