Im looking to get rid of my rediculously low (by my standards) springs.
They wasnt put on properly (before i got it) and its shredding the tyres as the allignment/camber is out.
And its just too low for day to day driving.
Im looking to get either standard or something slightly lower than standard.
Does it say on the springs what height they are?
Im new too car modding so i have no clue, any help is much appreciated
Cheers

I had standard 1.4 springs on my corsa breeze and uprated them to the GSI springs which are stiffer and have also lowered it by 10mm, there £42 ish each for front and rear on ebay.

i think these are the standard ones for the 1.6 but im not too sure.

Oh right thanks for that.
Its not urgent that I change them, Il just have to get use to being bounced about for a while and going steady on ye olde speed bumps haha
If anyone has anymore info, please, let me know.
