Anyone wanna guess how low they think my car is?

I like this height and have my new koni's with new mounts to go on and want some new springs to go with them as mine look fairly old and desgusting now!

I have the konis on 50mm drop and I'm moving mine upto 40mm as its not feeling right and I use it daily.. 40mm will be perfect I think.

40mm ish lower than standard going on the position of the tyres in the arch

Cool, i don't know how anyone copes using -60mm springs, this is plenty low enough:eek:!

Think i'll order myself some -35mm springs then and see how that sits.

Going -35mm on mine, what springs you thinking of getting?

Probably the gmax ones, thought i'd give them a try at £36 delivered of ebay.

agree that looks pretty good on height, id say it was -35/40mm

Heres mine -50mm on apex springs and torsion bar to match, cant remember how many splines, 3 maybe, but it was around 50mm drop before and after. I like the look and can just about get over most bumps but have to go slow and at an angle on the harsh ones
