I've had a Corsa C for a few weeks now and i'm not too impressed with the handling of it. Irmscher do a suspension kit inclusing springs & dampners for £470 plus fitting. This doesnt affect your warrenty in any way as its fitted by a vauxhall dealer.

Has anyone else had any experience of these? My car is on 16" wheels with the 195/45/16 Dunlop Tires (probaly the real cause of the shite handling)

Cheers

Will be good stuff,

Im pretty sure the irmscher suspension is made by Eibach..

Expensive for what it is.. but if your real concerned about the warrenty then go for it..

not spoke to anyone who has the kit..

You need to remember vaux are gonna charge you £60+ an hour to fit the kit too...

and knowin vaux they will take a while!!

Why not just get Eibach springs and Bilstein shocks. Might be cheaper than Irmscher.
