I rang Jam Sport & Demon Tweeks today for prices and they both say that the kit only lowers the car by 50mm approx Is this true? Any pics of them fitted ?

Also the best price i have been quoted is about £350 does anyone else know where i can get them any cheaper ?

Cheers

Kurt had them on his Corsa.

I'm sure I've seen a better price for them somewhere, will look around.

Here it is, £274.28.

I thought mine was the standard kit, and that was 60mm at the front 40mm at the rear.

They called it racing stance....and would only supply it like that.

Anyways iirc i paid £270 from EuroCar parts..........Because I didnt pay the VAT

Bilstein is top stuff, if I got another kit for a future corsa id like to try the B12 as I thought the B10 was fantastic.

B10's are just slightly upgraded shocks and lowered springs.

You want the B8's "Yellows" for about another £100 on top. Briliant fixed kit.

£274 for Blacks is far too expensive. I only paid £310 for the yellows.......

go yellows, FAR more worth it. Blacks really are just slightly better than originals. Reallly not worth it compared to yellows.
