60mm springs on standard shocks?

Post by MattMK »

Hi every one just wondering what could/would happen to my car if i was to put 60mm lowering springs on the standerd shocks?

I know that they ride will be horrible after a while, just wondering what else could happen, wearing bushes etc etc

any help would be great :)

many thanks

matt

not alot apart from that it would ride like a bag of SH1T!! and the rear arches would likely scrub as the rear end will be so soft.
