I'm not sure you can get Tubular metric lowers. You can get Tubular Nova lowers which fit metric chassis, but, they move the wheels ahead 1" which means you will have to relocate your top shock mounts. Also depending on the wheel base of your car, you may need to move the rear end ahead to stay within the maximum wheelbase requirements. Then you have to make sure the minimum distance from motor to axle center line is still OK after moving the rear forward. Lots to consider...
