i want to buy one of the FK sport suspension kits for £270 quid, but i can't decide out of the 60f and 40r or the 35f and 40r.
im on 15s at the mo with 195-45 rubber.
i would get the 60f in a shot, but i also want to use this suspension with a 2.0 lump and am worried that the weight of the engine will push teh 60 down to like 70 at the front and only 40 at the rear. Would this happen?
if so i think ill get the 35/40 kit. whats ur thought s on this?

i have the same prob as u, and i decided on the 35/40, is stupid going too low, just makes can inpractical and ruins the ride.
alright if u drive on perfectly flat/smooth roads all the time.
Go for optimum performance, not what u see in Max P etc..
might not look as rude, but should get a more comfy ride..

for optimum performance the wishbones must be perfectly horizontal. so work that out!
