I have lowered the front of my car by 60mm and now i keep scrubbing the inner edges of tyres not sure if there is a way round this or it just one of those things that comes with dropping your suspension. thanks

Change the drop to a 30mm drop would be the best way as by dropping 60mm you are pushing the geometry out beyond its tolerances. I actually noticed a significant improvement in mechanical grip (and improved handling) by changing from 60mm to 30mm.

Or

Fit adjustable lower arms at significant expense (circa £280).
