Springs

[RICK T]

I am considering lowering my T Sport, (standard wheels fitted) i've heard that 35mm is the optimum amount to lower it by. Would this amount be front and rear or would they be different amounts? Would i need to replace the shocks as well as the springs (the car has done 63000 miles)? Also which springs are best?

Sorry to ask so many questions.

about 30-35 is right i say, Eibachs all the way i still need to get mine fitted i not got round to yet(i got standard wheels & looks like i will do for a while!), Eibach lower it 30mm, wouldnt think lowering it make front look lower than back or vice versa if thats what u mean, judging by pics i seen, if u going to chnge shocks may as well buy coil overs? though ride may be hard!

do the eibachs do any damage to the standard shocks? short or long term due to increased pressure
