Bumping up an old thread, finally found a shot of my first ever type 3. 72 square, had bucket seats, custom door trims and a 12" sub in the front boot. I miss it.
Not sure where she is now.

But, the front wheels/tires are stopping me from lowering it.. oh well

You sure? check my old one out, it had pretty wide rims/tyres on it (can't remember the width) and it was lowered a fair bit for a daily + for tyres that size. It only scrubbed when there were 3+ people in it.

thats spoonGIRL to you :P

but yeah, think the offset or tire profile is too high.. where it sits now there's only about a finger's width between the tire and the wheel arch, when someone is in it. 😠

i didn't want to get low profile tyres and lose my highway speed.. cause that's where i do alot of driving.. oh, and the tyres are 195/65 R15's

ahhh, bummer. So if you do lower it anymore you will be doing the Austen Powers 200 point turn.... anyway, nothing a rubber mallet can't fix. LOL
