Cheers darren-b,

i'll get some pictures sorted this afternoon, saturdays washing day so i'll post some up on monday.

I've posted on here a few times in the last couple of weeks and got a great response from you guys so thanks for that.

Thought it was worth saying a quick hello.

Got myself a black 08 gt, had it for about six months now and loved every minute of it, not quite mastered the art of roundabout drifting but i'm getting there.

as far as forums go everyone on here seems great, no bitching or put downs wich is a nice refreshing change so its nice to be part of it. plus great to get the deals and advice avaliable.

Thats pretty much it, so hello

Hey - whereabouts in York are you? I regularly wave at a black import with a private reg starting H but don't often get a wave back! We do have Yorkshire meets now and then and a few of us are going to a pistonheads meet at Malton on Sunday.

I'm based in harrogate with a black uk 08, reg starts with H. could be me as i havn't waved at anyone recently ha ha.

I guess they're popular for a reason so i'll check kudos out. Many thanks.

i had the feeling 30's would be an issue out back, so with all the info i've gathered and obviously your post above i'll stick with

20/25. is there any pictures of your setup on here?

Now all i have to do is find some bargain H&R hubcentrics and i'll be laughing. cheers for your help.

Cheers Neilp, feel better about the drop now, i know its only thirty mill so its not exactly crazy but i dont want it to be a nightmare from day to day driving, also i dont want that "tucked" look you sometimes get after lowering hence the craving for spacers.

Hi Ruddles, thanks for your response.

the ideal setup for me is dropped thirty mil, 25mm spacers on the rear and 20 on the front.

i know with stock shocks and lowering springs its going to be a slightly bouncy ride compared to coilovers i suppose your a good person to ask actually.

Naturally i'm not going to hunt you down if your advice doesn't serve me well but based on your setup do you think i'll have issues. dont fancy rolling the arches either.

do you tyres fall behind the arches on large bumps?

sunday, black, harrogate, this could have been me.

yeh thanks alot i will do, just waiting for a day where my car stays clean after i've driven it off my drive.

i'll see what advice you guys can offer me on my post and also search through past posts aswell.

oh and i'll say Hi back, not quite with it this fine monday.

springs i think, i've run coilovers on my daily drivers in the past and just wan't happy with the ride, well lets say the interior panels weren't happy with the ride. just to stiff so opting for springs this time

Hey, i'm new to this forum so if this is in the wrong place or something thats been answered a thousand times before, i apologise.

I've got myself an 08 Gt, on 18" rays. Basically i'm wanting to lower it by 30mm and also fit spacers.

I've read loads of info about some people running 30's on the rear and 25's front wich looks impressive but i've gotta use my car everyday on some pretty shabby back roads, and naturally i love my car and dont wanna run the risk of creasing my arch on a dirty speedbump

Can anyone advise me of the best spacer size to go for with a 30mm drop, i dont wanna roll my rear arches but i want a decent stance.

Cheers in advance.
