Default BC Coilovers & 18" alloys - Newage

Is anyone running the BC coilovers on a newage (bug WRX) and also have 18" rims?

I am getting some new alloys soon and am looking at 18" but obviously don't want to have any issues with rubbing etc.

Also don't really want to alter the ride height to accomodate as it looks and handles very well as it is.

If you have got this set up could you let me know how you find it and if you have had any problems.

Thanks
David

Mine's ok Dave! No rubbing with the PFF7's but it's not quite as low as yours. Your more than welcome to borrow my wheels at anytime and try them out if you want

PS, tyres are 225/45/18's

Give me a text as will be at parents at the weekend.

18" rims will be fine David assuming they're 7-8J - more important is the offset, too low an offset will catch the arch.
