I don't have Zeta-S SuperLow for the EF mainly because there isn't any more space to go lower physically if you want to have ANY suspension travel.morgan_3 wrote:miester do the zeta s super lows now so you can roll like they do in the states
You can see that even EF in the States on 15" wheels can only just tuck the tyres...
To have most of the tyres under the arch on 15" will mean your chassis will almost be rubbing on the ground and you will have NO suspension travel... You will be riding on your bump stop so you might as well have no dampers.
I am pretty sure it can be done... but it won't be cheap as you are going to need a few custom springs, and the damper probably won't last as it will certainly close to be fully compressed all the time.
YAY! Thats my VT in Nocturnals pics. Its on 16 inch wheels too.
When I fitted them I set them with about 10mm spare and I only just got it out if the workshop and then 1 min down the road had to turn around to go and raise it! The middle box was hitting the floor and the mudflaps were actually slowing the car down. Thats how much they were touching the ground.
I've tweaked it since the pics, its slightly more nose down. Anymore and I wouldn't have a hope in hell of getting over the average size speedbumps into my street.
Go meisterR's you won't be disappointed.
