what springs lower 50mm

Postby dee_RS_2ltr on Tue Feb 08, 2005 10:58 pm

im wondering weather to go -50 or -60mm drop. i know gmax do a -60mm for fairly cheap but dont know who does -50mm springs and how much they cost.

will i have less hassle lowering it just 50mm because of the tyres rubbing etc or shall i just go for the 60? :D id have them on normal shocks at the mo till i get some money to get some sports ones.

ive got -60 springs on standard shocks and its a fairly firm ride, but im definately going to get some sports shocks a.s.a.p! i get some scrubbing but i have got 17s! All depends on what wheels you have because a -60 drop on 13s will make your exhaust hit the floor!

ive got 16" , so i should be ok then. i mite go for 50mm just to be safe and less hassle if it starts rubbing. but i still dont know who sells them.
