Chevrolet Daewoo club - forum

Hi, my name is Vedran , I am from Croatia and I drive a 97' Daewoo Espero

So here it is..

it was like this before I got my hands on it

I bought some new rims, from factory 185/65/14 I went to 215/35/18

I had to put some track spacers on the rear axle , 2cm on each side

but then it was normaly very high , it looked like a monster truck
so , I ordered Eibach springs -30mm for it, but by mistake they gave me -30mm for Nexia , and it lowered the front about 70mm and the rear about 40mm , I was very pleased

that was it for a while..

then the project started

because of the big rims, the rear brakes looked silly , so I got the rear axle from a Vectra 2.0

first I dissasembeled it..because it was rusty and didn't work ..

By ViperZG

I got rid of all the rust and painted it in mat black

By ViperZG

the callipers were repaired , fitted with new parts..

old vs. new discs

By ViperZG
