Had to wait a few weeks for these to arrive but big improvement on the old Daisys! :D
Thinking might need lowered slightly now!

agreed - huge improvement on the daisies :thumbsup: have you considered spacers rather than lowering?

Having had a good drive yesterday I've decided to keep things as they are for now, can't believe the difference! :thumbsup:

Looking at the pics I'd agree with Marlon about spacers. They would help fill the arches nicely without the expense of lowering. I've just put 20mm spacers all round on mine and it looks good and drives fine.
