Thanks David:-
1. Round Silver ones!!
Standard UK spec for MY00?
2. Errrrrm Standard UK spec for MY00
3. Not a clue but probably Standard UK spec for MY00
I should have thought, that as a farmers vehicle, it would be made to tow easily????? The P1 isnt allowed to tow - is that because it, too, would bottom out??

OK,
Step 1, get your alignment checked. It may be that your rear camber is close to positive, which could cause a rear wheel to hit the lip. If this is the case some rear camber bolts may be needed to change the setting as ex factory they are non adjustable. Hitting a kerb, pothole etc. could mess up your camber.
Step 2. If this doesn't solve it, roll your the lip on the rear guard. Many wheel places offer this as a service, or you can do as I did and do it yourself.
Take a look at http://integra.vtec.net/wheels/rollfender.html
I used the handle of a hammer. Worked very well.
I don't tow anything, my car is low and I run 215/45/17s on Compomotive ET50s that's why I needed to do mine
Hope this helps,
David

When towing, well below the max noseweight, the rear arch's rub on the tyres .......................... cant see any springs for assisters? what can I do? Its a pain in the 4rse!! Dont want to replace the shockers either ... it should tow a camping trailer without bottoming-out surely to god?
