lowering springs - 20mm ?

[M20FES]

Does anyone know if i can get 20mm springs, i dont want to go really low, but running 18" rims and just want to settle the height a little bit. Anyone know whats the smallest drop i can get or anyone know how much lower Cupra R springs are over standard FR ones ?

I'm running a 20 mm drop on my lcr. I love it to be honest. Speed bumps are not a prob and the ride is so much firmer. Try pi Suspensions.

Just remember most of the ratings are based on standard models S, SE etc not Cupras, etc. I don't know if the FR is lower than standard?

If you go for a set of Eibach Pro's you'll see around a 20mm/15mm drop on an FR:

for the price of just springs i've seen around the internet, isn't just worth getting a coil over kit? I've seen springs for £180 and coil over kits for £190, fully adjustable.

Coil overs for £190, you sure thats not for one corner, my old Avo adjustable coilover kit was about £550.

You may get 200 pound coilivers but i would be very dubious about quality, longevity, etc. of the kit
Need to think of warranty as well

My coilovers were £165 and have a 3 year warranty........I await people moaning at me because they were so cheap but they have been no trouble and there actually a pretty good ride......I had the same brand on my ibiza for 3 years to and they were also fine.

Have got a set of Eibach springs on mine and the height is perfect

Cupra / FR is 10mm lower than standard Leon, my springs were -35mm which dropped my car by 25mm

What are the make of your coilovers?

There Raceland coilovers, same as the hottuning and the jamex....and just about all the other sub £250 coilovers you will see.

That drop just looks about right, are they the same ones from the link ?....any more pics mate ?

How do you find ramps and bumps etc, whats the drive like compared to the standard springs, i.e is it a bumper ride....more grip ?
