i cant find a suspension kit that lowers more than 40mm for the corsa B gsi!!!

so shud i buy some e.g Koni adjustable shock absorbers all around and then get some 60mm springs seperatly?

dont wanna lower it yet thats y i wann know if standard springs will be ok with the uprated and shortend koni shocks?

will it lower it a true 60mm if i do it this way?

You won't probably find one that lowers more than 40mm because the GSI is lowered 20mm over a standard corsa as it comes from the factory so it will look the same as a normal corsa lowered 60mm with the 40mm kit hope this helps

Get a used GSI suspension kit for £40-60. I've put the back springs and dampners on and its much lower.
