hi!

how much should i lower my 2,1 zetec turbo
for good handling?
i bought a set of bilstein b8sprint shocks
but whats the best height for my fiesta?
i heard 40mm h&r springs are good

and what´s the best wheelsize for good handling?
perhaps someone could post a pic

thanks alti

I think 40mm is healthy. 15s for useful handling and sprint kind of use

[alti]

thank you james!

here are some pics of my fiesta with
bilstein shocks and -60mm powertech springs






....... i know my car need a wash

the car is much to low !!
anyone use h&r springs?
what are good springs?

thanks alti

NOW THAT'S FUNNY

do you know "click to enlarge" ?

i can´t drive out of my garage,the front wheels rubbing so much.
so i cant make good pics !
195/50R15 are to broadly
i hope 195/45 R15 are smaller/lower.
but is the handling good with so much
sorry i dont know the word "camber" ? \





i think i buy 40mm h&r spring
or someone know a better/cheaper mark?

thanks alti

I'm sure I tried to click on the earlier and they weren't linked to anything. I think you've been changing things

15s are known to rub with 195/50 tyres, they have to be 45 profiles. It does look a bit low. Camber is the correct word, if you mean your wheels are angled inwards to the top. The camber shouldn't be bad with a 40mm drop.

heeman, your sister is way too small in that pic

Hi alti i used -60mm gmax springs with 195/45/15 tyres the handling was very good and the tyres did not touch the arches i hope this is of some use to you

[The Gilly]

frankly I wouldn't go lower than 35 - 40 mm but it all depends what you mean by quality handling and ride quality.................

again you can have any size wheel you want but much more than a 16 and you'll be seeing torque steer for sure. 15's are where it's at imho

[alti]

thank you all!

on the first stage is handling!
i want to drive "slalom" and on some drag days,

second is comfort,its a
weekend car and fun car

i think my bilstein shocks are very good,

http://www.directupload.net/show/d/450/A89EQCjb.jpg

but which springs should i buy?

which tyre has the best grip?
i use the erst gearbox,but i want nevertheless very good tyres/slick

with the fcukc powertech springs my wheels have very much camber,
i think the wheel use only a small stripe inside

I'd say definately H&R, you will not go wrong. Quality comes at a price.

[Maff Si]

Eibach Pro-Kit Springs are very good too

iv had 2 mk3 fezzas,

1. Dropped 60mm on G-max shocks and springs. abit to low for me. had 15 / 45 / 195 wheels. could only take 1 passenger and when i had sub and amp in boot. it was hard to take people in the back [ERRR] it would rub on arches.

2. Dropped 35mm with 15 / 45 / 195 wheels. i have no rubbing at all, and the ride high and handling is better.

[alti]

thank you,that help alot!

monday i will order a set of
40mm eibach/h&r springs!

i made some pics if the springs are finally in.

! ! ! ! i thank all ! ! ! !
