I have the full APEX -40mm kit,was fitted a couple of days ago and its good, handles nice and not too solid, but like u guys say dont lower much. Mine is an SRi and it lowered the back y bout 5mm and the front by 15mm ish. | |

My corsa is lowered 40mm at front and 50mm at rear. Even with 16"s (205/50) tyres, and with 4 people inside, i've never had rubbing. The wheels are 49mm offset tho - which i have to say, helps loads. | |

quote: yeah they said that the corsa springs are a bit pants and only lower it about 25mm, so they gave me the 40mm nova springs! they r good at PVD, they know what they r on about | |

Sorry i was totaly wrong, (i was still sufering hangover when i wrote previous message). I actualy have apex struts and chassis dynamics springs. I got em from PVD where they recomended this combination. They said the chassis dynamic springs are a lot better and that they would split the kit for me for no extra charge! Top lads! the car handles soooo f'in sweet. | |

i have those wheels and springs and i find them to be a bit flexible - only time they rub though is when there is people in the back - ok otherwise! | |
