Hi, I've got just one question.
a mate will give me ultimate springs -60/40 and I want to fit them on my car.
Is it dangerous to fit a -60 spring on origin suspension? Not for too long, just waiting that I've got cash to get a good kit.
Maybe someone do this?
PS: I've got a 1.0 12V (please don't smile......I can't put another motor.....fuc***g french laws......), and sorry for my bad english....

It's not dangerous, just a crappy ride if the springs are not good quality.
Also the shock absorbers will wear quicker.

The springs can fall out when using full length dampers, if you put the car on a ramp or if you are on a bumpy road the same could happen.

i lowered my last car 60mm on just springs was fine, didnt have a problem.
its only if you are going lower than 60mm that you should seriously consider getting uprated shocks, dampers etc.
but 60mm should be fine on just springs

My old corsa was dropped 60mm on standard shocks, was bit bouncy but never had n e probs at all with them, they were gmax springs.
