true but I think he was mainly worried about the rear so there will be no differences there.

Also a 1.6 sport with aircon will sit lower then a 1.0 trip...

Like I said mate, if you want it lower then get smaller springs.

Simple as :cool:

I appreciate what your saying - it makes sence to buy the ones designed for a corsa - but I seem to remember the corsa B ones end up with the rear sitting a liitle to high compared to the front

I fitted some nova ones to a corsa many years ago which I think sat level

Just thought I ask for a second opinion/pictures before I part with the dosh

It makes sense though. Might as well get the ones that they have designed to fit your car.

If you want lower than 60mm then get custom ones, they're not that expensive. A chap on here does them, pazza1991 or something like that.

Following on from my previous post about alloys for a corsa b - My cheap project is starting to get more expensive !!!

The next purchase will have to be lowering springs - but which ones

I seem to remember Nova lowering spring fit and allow the corsa to sit even lower :thumbs:

Been looking at -60mm Jamex springs on Ebay (About 50 quid)

But do I buy Corsa or Nova ?


Any problems (insecure springs etc), pictures etc


Cheers
