would people be interested in lowering springs for the corsa B and C that offer 30,35 or 40mm drop that can be used with standard dampers but still retain the ride comfort? they are priced at around £90 a set. some specs:

cold wound steel
fully compressed and settled from the factory
progressively wound (get stiffer the more they are compressed)
shotpeened for extra strength
ISO 9002 and TUV approved
powder coated in black finish
made to higher standard than the original equipment

fitted some yesteday to my corsa c:

ride quality is almost unchanged from standard but sits a lot nicer and flatter through corners rather than understeering and rolling about like it used to.

Any comments welcome.

we wont be doing a 60mm option in these springs, the concept and aim of these springs is to offer an improvement in looks and handling without sacrificing the ride quality or the need for uprated dampers.

Fair enough, if they work well without the need for dampers them i'm sure they'll do really well. Still interested in a 40mm set
