  • Help me choose springs PLEASE!!

    Guys please help me decide on which springs to use my head is melted.

    Dilemma i have is I love the stance of the cobra springs, ie front slightly lower than the rear, but the issue I have wif these is that at 30mm I think they might be too low

    Ahmeds seem to look like they lower the car by a nice amount but any I've seen the rear seems to look quite low, car looks too flat

    Is there any other springs anyone can recommend, I would ideally love just ever so slightly lower than standard (15-20mm) but still keep the nice Escos nose down stance but not too low

    Apologies for not having a clue but all this modding is very new to me

              Dan I am getting a set of cobra springs, just been looking at pics flat out and thought they looked just that bit too low don't know maybe I'm wrong

                    Ahh fair do's, I was going to say be careful lowering on standard wheels - I have issues with mine catching on stuff with standard suspension and wheels.
