I'm down -40mm all around on Spax RSX Kit...

If you want a low look, i would recommend 60mm but be prepared for unconfortable harsh ride.

On coilovers you can play and toy with what ride height you want, this may be the best option for you..

SA corsa - fk's dont go 120mm.....your front looks no lower than 70 - 80.....anything over 100mm is just stupid...the exhaust will rub the floor, the rear beam will nearly point upwards!!!

iv got nova 60mm rears on the way as they act as about 65-70 as the corsa compresses the spring more then a nova does
