Doing nearly a ton down back roads on 17's, ya braver than me, :). If ya wanted to drive it lik that ya would hav been better on 15's. Dont get me wrong a lowered n stiffend Corsa can handle fairly well but u wil only get away with back road blasts on 17's for so long!!!!

Of course u may b a fantastic driver n get away with it, lol ;)

Yeh well, there's firm and there's firm!!!!
When your rolling on 17"s and 40 mil Yokohama's, and droped 40mm
and your doing nearly the ton down a back road, trying to stay ahead of your mate, u'd kinda want them to work well, and work well at that.......
Considering that they cost enough!!!!!!:!:!:!

i paid £330 for it, - about 490 euro's, i find that even on the lowest setting that it is a little harder than usual.

Hi m8, i have the kit fitted now, and was at first confused as to where the bump stops fit.

Just out of curiosity how much did you pay for your kit?

I have the very same kit, and like you i asked myself the vey same question? They fit directly onto the shalft or rod of the shock, then the dust cap goes over that...... Anyway there in the car about 3 months, and i was checking them over today, and i noticed that the drivers one was completely busted and split in two down the middle!!!!!
I dont no how this happened, as the passanger side is fine!!!!
Also, i found the suspension very hard, and this is even at the lowest setting!!!!! So me is very confused and not very happy with the kit, considering i paid a lot of dosh for it!!!!!!!
Anybody else had a problem or a similar thing with this kit????

They slide down around the piston rod and sit on top of the damper body.
