question on buying lowering kits

thats a great shout! probably i'll get them at the end of the month. but -60mm front and -40mm back will be too much on just springs rite? cus if it was just the springs, i could probably jst scrape the dollar now, if it's the shox too, like the ones u posted, i'll have to save!

should i just see it out n get the shox too?

its up to you.... but if you're gonna do something you might aswell do it right otherwise you'll end up regreating it later down the line...
Hold off untill you have the funds and then get it done

Well I've learnt from my mistake. I changed just the springs and am now spending more money buying a complete kit which I wish I had done in the first place. Some people may say you don't need to change the shocks but I would put that down to not knowing how a good handling/riding car should feel.

great advice chaps...

other question was if the wheels are 195/50x15, would lowering it by 60mm cause any problems??

cheers
