coilover help?

Post by I-Roo »

basically I have a 1.4 8v 6n2 SE and I have £230 to spend on lowering my car I can probably get the coilover fitted at my local garage for free maybe even a few pints since im very good mates with the owned if not I can get my master of a granddad to fit em... I was wondering what's the best I can get for handling/style of lowering considering I do live in the yorkshire dales the roads aren't to bad but some of the odd single lain ones have some god dman horrid dips in them :s

All help is very well appreciated as im only 17 and ive never bought coilovers before..


Also ill be using the stock 6n2 alloys the chunky ones :P
