Coilies or Lowering springs?!?! HELP!

[JayMcalldoe]

So basically the title says it all...

I wanna lower my 1.4, but it's strictly for aesthetic purposes as there is no point in really tuning the 1.4.

I've heard mixed things, that coilies are just plain better than lowering springs, but i've also heard that lowering springs decrease body roll etc.

Any help will be appreciated

Decent coilover will perform 100x better than any lowering spring/standard shock set up

Just buy some coiles off eBay under 200 with warranty

Then you can set the height just right for your area eg speed bumps lol

Hmmm, I think I will end up getting coilies, but the price of springs just jumps out at me,

I'd say go for coilovers unless you're going to change both the springs and shocks.

I thought about it after i posted this thread
I realised that new springs on stock shocks could end badly!
Thanks for the comment though dude!

a set of shocks and springs will set you back as much as coilovers, at least with coilovers you can adjust to how you want

Yeah I realise this now, I think coilovers are definitely the way forward
