Thats ok until one side breaks and your left with a car leaning to one side and handling like shit. Wouldn't trust that if driving hard.

why dont you just shorten the front springs??

all you do is get spring compressors and compress them a little (10mm) then get thick cable ties to hold them in the compressed state.

the fella i bought my springs of when i had my corsa had done this

From personal oppinion what spring lowers the car more?

Ive currently got gmax -40mm springs all round, the rear sits where i want it to, but the front sits too high, because the 1.0 engine doesnt weigh bugger all, so want to drop the front some more.

Ive ordered a spax -50mm spring kit as thats the lowest they list without buying shocks as well, so what i want to know is does spax lower the car more then gmax...or will my -50mm spax springs look the same as the ones on the car, as different kits offer different heights, despite what they claim...

pics would also be good please of a car with a 50mm spax front drop (or 40 if it looks low)

Thanks
