Yeah the only 'pro' to 60mm is LOOKS. 40mm handles better, grips better, comfier, dampers/bumpstops/balljoints/bearings & tyres last longer, doesnt catch humps etc... | |

i would say stay at 40mm cos the driveshafts/ cv joints sit at a different angle when u go -60mm and they will wear out quicker and -40 WILL handle a lot better (if its looks ur after go -60) the ideal height for a corsa is -40 front and -30 rear. all the best manufacturers i.e bilstein, eibach, koni etc drop up to 40m | |

btw ive had many different springs on my car, it handled best -40 at the front and -20 at the back. | |

if your not changing teh shocks then do not get 60mm springs, it will handle like a sack of shit ( worse than standard) and you will only need to change the shocks after about a month anyway after they start leaking!!! | |

60 will hold the twisties betta as well, mines down 60 on 15" wheels, i can easyily beat vtr's, zetez-s's and alot more 1.6's in a race purly to mine being able to go round corners twice as fast as them, fair enuff in a straigh line they'd be quicker, but how many straight roads r there in britan? | |

60 will look nicer but not as practical as 40 (speedbumps etc) | |
