Looking to do the puma 1.7 conversion to my 1.25 mk4 fiesta zetec, gone with the fiesta st150 brake set-up, now looking to lower car, looking to lower about 20-30 mm , will be running on 15" escort gti/mondeo alloys, hopefully without having to roll arches? is this possible ? cheers.

If you go no more than 30mm and use 195/45R15 tyres you should be ok.

GTi/Mondy alloys have a slightly different than standard offset (they poke out a couple mm more), so the lower profile tyre should ensure clearance.
