When i get the new wheels back on, we'll have to do some measuring to compare our cars. What you're doing with 18s make it look like it MUST be on air.

(here's where i wish you would tell me that you secretly found an airride system for minis)

Just did mine. See my gallery for pictures. No rubbiing with the 225x45x17. Some how I gained 1* of neg camber on the rear. Is that normal? The car droped 20mm all around.

It took me 5 hrs in the garage - awesome results and great stance.

I'm happy...

Tell me why you are changing the megans. I was seriously considering them, I like the look and the price but if you are having a problem with them I may want to reconsider. How much would you be asking and how old..and how many miles on yours.

Thanks,

Craig

I'm curious as well. Rally- You run Megans, too, right? They look quality and like a good value. Opinions?
