Default Prodrive springs - Pictures reqd

Has anyone got any pictures of the difference - before and after - when Prodrive springs have been fitted on a Wagon .....

A silver MY03 or onwards would be ideal as thats effectively what I have.

I am thinking of getting them but have only seen them fitted to saloons.

I did a search but the only wagon pictures that did exist seem to have gone!

i dnt think it drops a great deal tbh...think is was near 20mm, though its spose to help with the handling though...

Tein spings i have read lower the car by 40mm...though unsure if this is true..

Yep I heard it was a 20mm drop for the Prodrive springs.

I liked the fact that the ride comfort should be retained with the Prodrive springs. Bigger drops can make it over firm. But then that is down to preference and driving style.

i just had Eibachs fitted to my STi (ok i know its not a wagon) but i felt these actually improved the ride - much more supple over uneven road surface.
But then mayb the STi setup was to harsh
Dropped it by 20mm or so so looks quite good now and cheaper than the Subaru fiited Prodrives (£300 for mine £500 for Prodrive) ... and i think there are basically the same spring.
i went to Powerstation so they could advise you better but from my experience Eibachs is very good option
