Lowering

Post by macki-gls »

im lowering my corsa 60mm, but i dont know where to get these shortened shock absorbers, and how much are they?I cant afford new shocks and so i only went for springs. Also would i be able to fit 15\" wheels and have it lowered 60mm or would speed bumps be a serious problem for me? I have no kit on my car so i wont be scuffing anything expensive hopefully.

mines lowered 60mm on standard shox and 15\" alloys n is fine, i put skirts on to n they were fine also.

id advise getting gas shox, im saving for mine rite now, hitting a bump feels like someone dropping a ton of bricks on ur car!! :| the shocker compresses but because theres not enough spring to stop it from hitting the bottom of the shocker it doesnt feel nice :cry:
