40mm on standard shocks will be bouncy bouncey, the sock wont be able to comtrol the rebound of the spring, if ya want 60mm which looks real good get a spring shock combo

40mm would be perfect but I would too also recommend uprated shocks for better handling and stability.

30mm - should be OK with standard shocks, anything lower start thinking of shocks and spring packages.

For serious and bring drops i.e 60-70mm I would get adjustable coilovers :thumbs:

would 40mm be ok? or is that too high?

also do they do 50mm springs?

It'll be really bouncy on standard shocks and the shocks wont last 2 mins either
