Smaller diameter on front tires.

OptionZero · 07-25-2017, 06:44 PM

one of the "reasons" for lowering would be to decrease the wheel gap from tire to fender

smaller diameter actually increases wheel gap

but hey

do whats free

Before the lights on the dash come on. It's a little less then 3% difference or about 1" in height. You go over that. It's on you.

That is a wise decision. There are other spring setups out there that go lower than the swifts, if cash is tight.

Op, just keep those extra tires in case something happens but keep running your current setup
