Heya's

I currently have H&R lowering springs, 30mm in the front, about 25mm in the rear on stock shocks. Since adding 2x 12" subs in the boot...obviously the rear of the car drops more....with this happening...it makes the front of the Cordoba appear looking up(higher). Approx difference (front compared to rear) is about 10-15mm. Would it be better to:

(A) Place new lowering springs on the front
(B) Heat treat the front springs to counter for this difference
(C) Place firmer springs on the rear

Waiting for your advice

Hi

Not sure which option you should take.

However, I am interested in getting some H&R lowering springs for Ibiza.
What the verdict on these springs? I know that if you go with really low springs this affects the camber etc.. and causes tyres to wear on the inside?

Your advice appreciated

Heya,


Verdict is that they drop specifically the amount of 30mm in the front and 25mm in the rear. The ride is a bit firmer and not bouncy....this is on stock shocks
