PI springs are rated to 90lbs which is weaker than factory vauxhall stuff. Better off getting g-max etc

Eibach springs are the best by far. Eibach now do a really low line of springs as well as the usual -30mm ones. Eibach are the best but they cost alot more than the others.
If you want your car to handle well you'll need uprated dampers as well as lowered springs.

if you don't get new dampers the ride will be bouncy and you will wear out your standard shocks quicker than normal.

Sorry, I used two different ways to describe the same thing.

I'm writing my dissertation right now and have to try and use different ways to describe the same thing all the time to make it sound vaguely interesting!
