I will get a pic of mine 60 on front rear to match, had all liners in but it did hit the wings if you hit any bumps in the road while the wheels had lock ok. Only seemed to happen with a lot of lock say turning into streets ect
Did annoy me abit at first as I didn't know why I kept getting dents in the wing thought it was people passing been chavish wankers

Have a look at my hdi project thread. That was lowered 40 front 60 back and looks spot on. No rubbing on the rear.

My old 6, 60mm Gmax shizzle. Had no issues on the Cyclones but when I ran 17's I had to get the front arch lips rolled.

See all these look like they are fairly high my mate tom says his is 60mm he's on here somewhere moonstone hdi with gutmann alloys and his is dragging its balls so I think his is way more than 60mm but this looks like the perfect height for me as I'm not to patient with speedbumps ATM and I don't want to learn the hard way lol

I keep scraping and catching the splitter just at 40mm, couldn't put up with 60mm lol, it does look better though, I'm just more of a function over form person I guess though.
