lifted Foz

Post by clarkey » Wed Feb 24, 2010 10:41 am

I finaly got my 05 foz lifted yesterday.

I did get one inch springs, and 215/75 r16 on it but for some reason the lift has ended up at 3 1/2 all up, i dont mind, and the guy that did it recons king springs supplied the worng springs, but still fit just not legal anymore. haha. i will try and get some pics up as soon as i can.

the foz performs so much better off road now. good spent money, i recon.


Cheers Mike

How did you get 215/75R16's to fit?? Did you have to change your strut perches? Wheel arch? What brand are the tyres?

Anyways, pics are looking great! You gotta be enjoying that extra clearance!!

Cheers,
Pedro.

that is a my bad, the tyres are only 215/70r16, they only just fit in there. and they are just an import brand, still $250 a tyre, i got for $150 i know the guy, hence the reason i got the lift done cheap. and the extra clearance is sweet, can go so many more places. :) and as for the strut's, they are fine, have had no troubles at all so far. *Touches Wood*

Cheers Mike.
