Hi im looking for advice on lowering my leon
I have 17inch wheels fitted already would like to lower abit
Not sure what drop tho. Sometime i need to carry a bit of weight
Any advice or picture of yours would be much appreciated
 
The instinctive reaction is 'Don't'
Lowering rarely improves the way a road car drives - usually means spending quite a lot of money and effort to make the suspension slightly worse/less useable than standard, unless the car's current springs/dampers have really had it.
But if you want to do it just for the looks then you probably won't care so much anyway.
 
Hi thanks for the reply
The fronts have seen better day.
And alot of it is the look of the car but at the same time its used for work when it is needed.
Do i upgrade the shocks and put a 35mm drop spring or just leave it with normal height
Style or practicality ?
 
I not sure on the drop to be honest. What it to look lower but i also need it for work so it needs to carry weight.
The shocks are on 80k miles
 
With 80k on the dampers I'd suggest changing them at the same time and going for a matched springs and shocks kit.

What's your budget?
