Pretty much what the title says.
I've got SL's all round at the moment and am looking at chucking some SSL's in the rear to (obviously) put it down lower a bit more.
My question is will I have to roll my guards if I get this done with 18" wheels + low profile tyres?
Is anyone here experienced in lowering VZ's?

There is a photo in "My Ride" if people need clarification on current height, thanks heaps!

you dont need to roll your guards, just need a couple weeks to let the springs settle before you get a wheel alignment and it wont scrape if you have the right offset wheels

see how the wheel alignment goes first, if the cambers too far out then put one in
