Hi guys

I'm new here so be kind!lol

I've recently taken ownership of a 340 which was planned as a runabout to hold me over till I found a new car, but now I've decided to tinker a bit!

The car - A 1987 340 4 door with mint bodywork only 1 bit of paint damage/rust and still looks good! 1.7 engine with 87K miles.

What I had planned for her was a set of lush superlite alloys and to lower her. That then leads on to my next question/questions!
What size alloys do I go for? And how do I go about lowering her? Lowering blocks like the old escorts and front springs to match or do I go for new dampers etc?

Any advice/help would be great!

Cheers guys

Graham

Hi and welcome to the forum.

I am able to supply all the parts for lowering 300's - take a look in the offer section under performance parts cat.

If you can afford to fit is bet to fit the springs, blocks and dampers at the same time.

Cheers classicswede

I was looking thro the forum before joining and saw the parts you offer, you seem to know your stuff!.
I would replace it all at the same time anyhow.

Whats the kind of average drop for one of these beasts? Mine is a 5 door and I think it needs to be dropped quite a bit to look better.

Cheers

Graham

3inch - 75mm is the most common drop on the front and either 40 or 50 mm on the back.
