Still loving my Duchy Banded Steels and so glad I made the change from alloys.... I’ll never go back! The combo with the Goodyear Eagle F1’s is spot on.... it rides nice and so easy to clean.... love ‘em!

Finally got the machined T6 top mounts and ‘stage 1’ hub mod done yesterday.

I think it sits much better now.

I’m unsure on lowering the rear any further now. It sits a bit lower on the right due to the kitchen.

Looks like it sits at about 85mm like mine, I did my top mounts this week , just hoping my RRs don,t catch to much when I get them on .
Yours sits lovely though

Cheers bud. I’m not getting any catching at all.
Although that may change if I go to 245/45 from the 40s that are on it now.

I read B14s go to -70mm. Top mounts account for about 12mm and hub mod is about 10mm.
So I’m around -90mm.

I was going to get 255/45 tyres on mine, I was considering 245/45s but as my rears are 10” wide 255s would give the rims a bit more protection, I have information from a reliable source that 255s will probably just rub the arch liners at 80mm drop which I can rectify which a heat gun

I'm on 10s at the back too and the rim's aren't toooo exposed...
(coming from a guy that once had 195s on a 9!)
 
I honestly don't know. I know I get no catching now on a 9.5 front (245/40)...
But that may change with the 245/45
Fair enough, I,m think I,m gonna go with 255/45s Falkens just so the rear rim isn't as exposed!
I think I might have to modify the front arch a bit but that is easy doable, cheers for your help mate.
