Hey

My mate is wanting to lower his 1.6 astra g. I think he has around £150 for a set of springs. He has some 17" fox racing alloys et47 so shouldnt scrub when lowered but iv advised him for about 60mm.

Where can you get astra g springs from?

Thanks

can get 60mm front and 40mm rear kits from quite a few companys.

very rare to see 60mm rear springs for a mk4 astra though

i went 40-40 with Apex tbh im very impressed with the ride hight cumfort and handling for budget springs, although mine has ESP

Mk3 astra springs do fit, as do nova/corsa

iam down 60mm it doesnt rub but its such a harsh ride even with the damper set at medium

eibach's 50/30 spring kit is the best imo for ride quality

I had gmax 40mm springs on my Astra SRi, swapped for spax 60/40 which were absolutely horrible, ride was very harsh and was just far too low with the irmscher kit, i then swapped for eibach 50/30 and never looked back, been buying eibach springs ever since and i wouldnt change again
