Default Pics of lowered classics
I have done a search but I could do with some updated results.

Springs only please, as I haven't got shocks money.

Please also list what springs are on the car.

who make the h&r springs? seem popular. got the kyb agx shocks too and the eibachs hardly lower it at all. i want a lower stance especially on 17" wheels.

andy.

darren, can i ask how stiff the ride is on those springs, as when monies better i may invest in some. but i want them as stiff if not stiffer than my current eibachs.

andy likes bone crunching ride and little roll in the corner, hence the same shocks as you on the hardest settings

Another H&R set up here on standard struts.







-50mm springs... in reality the car has dropped 25-30mm against standard ride height.
