the shocks are not made to be compressed that low all the time, there is a very large chance the shocks will fail, or that they may even pop out while driving. whoever you got these from should have warned you | |

erm, to be honest i dont know. the whole point is standard shocks with -50 springs will feck your car big time, and probley crash it for you | |

if they havent gone down now then they wont. this bollox about springs settling in only makes a minute difference, if your not happy send them back. | |

please get some uprates shocks for the front. if you dont the shocks may will give way of pop out while your driving. They are not meant to be kept compressed this low. its V.Dangerous to have springs lower than -40mm on standard shocks | |

it will do you need to drive it a bit for the suspension to settle, please please please get some front shocks! as lowering more than 40 on standard shocks is VERY dangerous | |
