I have recently had coilovers fitted and i was wanting peoples advise...... now the car is used as a daily on some poor roads with one or two speed bumps. What do people think should i go a bit lower or am i likely to start hitting the sump etc

Get 17's then go lower, problem solved.

Looks to be at a 'sensible' height to me :thumbup:

Looks good how it is

Just go slow over the bumps and drop it on its arse. Sorted

Thanks for the replies folks, i think i may go just a tad lower but not to much. I will get some pics up when its done and in regards to the wheels i am still undecided between 16's or 17's

Lower than that on 16's will look ****!

Looks perfect how it is

cheers dude

Looks okay as it is!

I want to lower mine, but it would mean physically mending the farm track we live up by myself. So It's going to stay standard.

lol may be a long walk ?

Have a bike to cycle the rest? :thumbup:

Looks just nice how it is. How do you feel the car has changed? Does it handle better? Is it on Weitecs?

I have 17 Spiders fitted and Weitec Hicon GTs and love them :thumbup:

They are on vmaxx and to be fair the ride is a hell of a lot better then standard, i think with a rear ARB the ride will improve even more :thumbup:

Yep mine does feel so much better to. Takes the corners better and just feels better on the day to day commute. I would like to fit a RARB to at some point.

Leave it as it is if you plan to stick to the standard wheels, but go a tad lower if you change to 17's at some point :)

drop in mm please!!! lol :giggle:

that's pretty much what I do Matt :giggle:

go lower! mine is all the way down and still too high. low is like Stuart's old one on bags....

i travel on fairly **** roads and will wind mine back down into ''summer'' mode soon, dont have be silly low but enough to still look B)

Leave it as it is.

I tried mine most of the way down, looks and drives pants.
