hello people!

I am currently looking to replace the springs on my 2i 8v as when i brought the car it had koni adj shocks but cut springs!

i just wonted to know if i have to buy koni springs to match the shocks? or do all springs fit?

if so what springs give a good firm ride?

Looking to drop it about 35/40mm

Many Thanks

i know gmax supersport springs give a firm ride but dont know if they would fit the koni shocks. there cheapish and they lower from 35-60mm

I had Pi but have heard lots of good things about Gmax

with the 60mm drop do the tyres scrape the arches? or do you have any problems with pot holes etc? i was think bout a 60mm drop but dont know about the draw backs.

if ur lookin for a cheap way to do it then use FRST springs, they were 25-30 mm lower as i recall, but u prob want it lower than that

its fine to be honest.... im running the 16s by 7 on 60mm drop width a tyre profile of 195/45
car dont scrape width me in the car.. i have no arch mods....
more than 3 people in the car then u hear the arch moaning alot..
u can run them width no arch work i have for 3 years.... been fine...
i only have 2 peeps max in the car....

hopefully by the end of this month i will have my car ready for my new set of rims..... going in next week some time when i get paid @ the end of this month..... need to get it done soon as the rims takes 4 weeks to come thru....

cant wait as im doing something different to front bumper and the rims is going to kill it aswell l as smothing some other parts of the car..
euro..... style
