  • My Astra on 3SDM's - A brief history

    • FK AK coilovers with helpers removed, rears all the way down.
    • 3SDM 0.05's, 18x8.5j front, spaced 25mm, 18x9.5j rear, spaced 5mm.


    A few pics, this was the old stance:











    Then I got my act together and removed the helpers and wound it right down:







    I'd love the fronts flush with the arch but I already have scrubbing issues over bumps and on full lock, any suggestions? Rear is pretty much where I want it but I'd love a little camber and ~15mm more spacing.

      Looks pretty cool.

      As for the rubbing issues, don't turn full lock.




      The Kia has been parted.

            Haha I'm really not surprised, it's a popular wheel for the Astra. I'm running 225/40/18 all round at the moment, money's tight and tyres can wait.

                Your tyres will be the rubbing problem, I am running 215-35 fronts and 225-35 rears without any rubbing on full lock.

                          Looks very clean, i'm currently about to drop my astra and get the 3sdm 0.01 in black.

                          Photos should be read in the next 2 months but im also saving for an e90 so I could end up doing nothing with it

                          Nonetheless this looks sick!
