    Re: 16v Widetracking

    Right,

    I know there are posts already on this so forgive me for a new post!

    I want to widetrack my valver to willy.

    Now firslty will there be any issues with how low my 16v is?

    Its running on the rear, to the lip of a 15" rim, and accordingly on the front. Any issues here?

    Will I be best to use a willy subframe?

    Now pardon me for this but what about the rear!? Do the wheels sit wider on a willy or the same as a 16v? Is it a different rear beam? Are the wheels spaced etc...?

    All in all are there any beneifts?

    gets abit tight in the arches after 45mm with 195/50's

    The Williams rear gets it wider track buy having 7J wheels over the 16v 6.5J

    16v subframe does a good enuff job ....Im swapping my williams subframe to a valver when i get chance

    Cheers winston,

    Im running 195/45/15's.

    Overall is it worth it? Im not using the car for track days etc.

    Only the front end is wider component-wise and the arches easily take it.

    I'd consider driving a standard height one first though - having been in lowered valvers, the handling is a lot 'stodgier' than a williams standard set up!
