    I'd go super lows with 20's. I've got th in my VT with 20's they don't scrub at all even on full lock with people in back seat.

    Super low won't tuck your rear, I suggest ultra low in rear and a super low in front

    SL's would only just tuck.

    I had SSL's perfect height, nearly just tucked rim.


    If it isnt tuckin, it must be suckin

    Looks good man nice Calais.. I've got a gas tank in the boot. Will it be too much if I put ultras in the rear?

    Ive never been pulled over so guess not.

    As long as you have an engineers you are fine, if you just get drop in bags it's only a small thing to put springs back in.
