lowest that you can go is 100mm, that is measured from the lowest point of your car, depending on the car, it could be the chassis rails, exhaust or even sump...

In victoria the legal limit is nothing under car can hang lower than 100mm from the road..... or basically cruise over a Ciggy packet which is 90mm without touching it.
Lowering your car can both improve handling, braking and looks of your car, but if not done properley it can still look good BUT also dramatically decrease your handling, steering, braking capabilities, not to mention wearing out your tyres. If you go on your RTA website you should be able to print off the regulations, or indeed a quick call to ur local RTA office and im sure they can mail it out to you. |
