Thanx John, don't suppose you've got any pics of the front arch have you just so i know how low it'll sit roughly. | |

I like the sound of the koni red set, i mean, i'll pay up to about 250. Not too bothered about handling, well don't want it too be rock hard, cause it only goes to and from work and round seafront a bit. John_C where was that from? | |

G-max shocks and springs drop more than they say, and with 17s itl handle like poo. | |

I have 60mm Gmax lowering springs with Pi shocks. Bloody bumpy but got the set for £85 second hand. Its good enough, and would say it drops it by about how much it should. | |

Wanting to get a suspension kit, just springs and uprated dampers, for my corsa b with 17's, only wanting to drop it 40mm max, preferably 40f/30r split. anyone got any advice on which kits are best value and actually lower what they say they do |
