Lowering Help?

[BhlXcLuSiVe]

I Have Currently Planning My Little Project For When I Get My Corsa.
At The Moment I Work At A Range Rover Specialiast Garage And One Of The Other Workers Warned Me About Lowering?
So I Was Wondering What Do I Need?
And What To Look Out For?

dont go too low as praticality becomes an issue eg speed bumps also what wheels you have can effect it because of offsett and re adjust bracke load compensator on rear axle if you model has one

going to low will thow your camber angles, steering geometry and drive shaft angles out and damaging your cv/steering joints etc.

yes all the above is true, but really what else do you expect, the normal amount to lower a corsa is 40mm without rear wheel scrubbing with passengers in, any lower and its a no no to passengers. but on the front if you lower your car then make sure you go and have your wheels tracked as it does toe them out after lowering. and it does pay for you to buy an upper and lower strut brace as to keep the front chassey solid as the leaning from the car will also put more pressure onto the inside edges of your tyres therefore wearing them out more but the braces do reduce that. not completley but slightly saves buying tyres as much really. but you will notice the cornering is a hell of a lot nicer and faster once it is lowered.
