Lowered tomorrow!!

[seanalderson2]

Getting my car lowered 60mm tomorrow on standard shocks, just wondering who else has done this and is the bang when going over bumps bad??
Thanks, Sean

i had this done on one of my older corsas and i will never get it done tht low again.

the bang all depends on the bump and the tyres you have as tyres also help cushion the 'bang'.

i had mine lowered 60mm for about 12 months tops when things started goin, needed new track rod ends, ball joints etc.

if i was to lower mine 60mm again i would be buying the kit you can buy to lower the whole steering rack keeping everything lined as it should be.

Methinks 60mm is too low... (Saying that, i'm not a big fan of lowering...)

Make sure to post up some pics of it lowered, it may change my mind....

Hmm suppose lowering springs will do as a short term thing. Looks good and will handle better.
Yeah mate will do

you all ways going to ware things out quicker with a lowered car but it looks good and lowers your center of gravity..

ive got my astra h lowerd about 110mm just have to take speed bumps a bit slower lol

[seanalderson2]
