    Can a car really be too low for the MOT? Check this valver

    Ive just found this browsin piston heads.

    Im not a fan of big wheels on valvers but this looks the absolute nuts i think!

    He says its too low to pass an MOT.

    True?

    False?

    I dont know, thats why im asking.

    Prob not too low at all. It'll be the wheels are fouling the arches coz of the lowering / big rims. Smaller wheels for mot and then put the 17's back on.

    How much he asking?????

    Mines -60mm on 195/45R15's had to take some lengths of 4x6 to put the car on the ramps with so they could get the axle jack under it.
