don't forget the antiroll bar links too, or you'll get the driveshaft rubbing the antiroll bar.

Very Good Point.

Talk to BBT about this for more info!!

 

[olaf]

heres the options iv thaught about

just springs - 50mm £90
shocks n springs - 60mm £145
coilovers - whatever £270

They seem cheap!

Im guessing they are fairly cheap manufacturers?

dont listen to girl answers, you can have 18s lowered to 100mm on the coilovers and still will fit 4 people fine,

im on 20s lowered to roughly 90mm and i have no issues.

i have found people on here are scared of the unknown, so dont tend to try it.

i however am not,

are you after coilovers or shocks and springs

 

[Nutkin]

whats all this about anti roll bar links. explain to me. Im fairly technical minded but dont have a clue what an anti roll bar is.

love the answer, and seeing as most peeps have only lowered by 15-25mm, just the answer i been looking for also, major smalling ahead then i think
