I have been asking around now for some time about getting my car lowered and I am awaiting for my Eibach springs to arrive...

The main points of my concern are:
- Get shocks as well?... although its a tad late for that and I'm 50/50 on wether to or not soo many people have said the ride is really uncomfortable and that you don't need them unless your gonna drive it hard into corners etc... others have said get them cus you need to upgrade them now.... for better handling etc

- Uneven tyre wear... I have been told by a guy I know he had a set of springs on his Escort Cossie and they used to wear down the tyre's really badly on the inside but the rest of the tyre was fine...?

^^^ I hope thats not the case with my car has anyone experienced that problem?

when you lower you really need to alter the camber too thats why you get uneven tyre wear. also tracking.

isnt it because lowering it ...means you should really adjust / change the camber?
ive lowered mine 60mm all round and have just put new tyres on, so im waiting to see if they shag quick too. ill be getting those camber adjusting bolts from lmf if they do
