Best lowering spings


Recommended Posts

Is that the best drop to go for 35mm? Will that be a good even drop all round? I have noticed my octy looks high at rear so will it still stay high even on the drop? Thanxs for all helpfull answers guys

I got mine online then had them fitted at abc in pudsey . You need a hunter rig alignment after to make sure everything's ok . I replaced rear bushes and drop links as mine were perished as well

I took my Pi springs off due to the Dampers being shot

Replaced the whole lot with a Bilstein B12 kit, but the drop is only around 15mm compared to 30mm with the Pi springs

BUT the ride now is superb..smooth but still firm...not cheap mind you

Mine is on H&R 35mm - gives around a 20mm drop on the vRS, so just a subtle lowering.

If you are going for handling rather than appearance, then get a RARB fitted at the same time (I fitted a Whiteline on the middle setting)

It has gone from cornering like a blancmange to cornering like a proper car :)
