much better, tyres look tiny, they 45's or 50's?

I'd bhe tempted to bring the back up half inch or so at least, maintain that rake.

There 50's welshpug, i was debating raising the back but if i get time i may at leadt it doesnt rub at all lol.

Iv got to get some sillicone hose to fit the bmc as with the standard intake pipe it wud be like a road sweeper dragging on the floor lol stripped and cleaned it tho ready!!

Im not sure best way to do it really but il work it out,didnt realise how mahoooosive they are either!!!

if the beams good it'll go all the way to the bump stops without rubbing, doesnt mean it'll handle anything like a standard car (i.e excellent)

true as there's little camber really. standard i thought the handling was amazing already but the vts beam being stiffer is a big improvment
