another arb question
HI
This is my first post so be gentle with me.
so i picked up my first scooby a 99 classic T 2000 its running at 350bhp at the min but after a week of driving iv noticed a fair bit of understeer, so i have done a bit of reading different threads etc and a Rear ARB and drop links to start with but my first question is
1) should i get a 22mm or 24mm will be getting fixed either way as ive always had fixed and never bothered with adjusting, i will be going on the track about 4 times a year.
2) what shoud i get next eibach springs or front ARB? or something else
3) It came with 18" whees on at the min and i have found that they rub if i go round a corner with a bit of speed so.... will doing these 2 jobs sort this out or should ithink about 17" alloys?
If there are better ideas that i should do first then they will be greatly received as well as the answers to my question
Thanks to all

24mm for a smooth driver, 22mm for a wheel-monkey like me... with drop-links.
IMHO 17" wheels are enough for a classic. If it scrapes now lowering it will make it worse.
Get the geometry checked out, as a 12 year old car could be well out of spec. depending on use/abuse.
