Only managed to grab a photo after work http://www.cardomain.com/id/farhanali89

add me if any of you fellas on there!

Will be getting the page up and running once i manage to get any more work done to the car. I bought my wheels in a split last minute decision. However i knew what i was after, i went for 17 team dynamics pro race. Partly because they were cheap and also i liked the black on black.

Now more to the point have been looking through alot of threads on the forum about lowering and many recommend Eibach or tte springs.

I managed to dig up an old thread which Gemxr had posted. I liked the drop on her pre facelift and she used G-max springs F45mm R30mm.

Any ideas on how these springs are?

Also finnaly before i keep going on any of you guys know how to lower the car and if you would be able to fit them!? Obviously give me your price etc or if you know anyone good who knows how to do the t-sports.

The Facelift modle is already 15mm lower than a pre anyway, So those srpings would probably half the lowering, if you get what I mean.

Just like the TTE and Eibach only lower it 15mm.

I did change my own springs, with the help of a friend...who had a garage at his disposel..... with a hydrolic ramp and power tools. :lol:

Took us about 3 hours in the end, it's pretty simple just annoying having to clamp the springs and make sure you get them in the right place when putting them back on. I'd just hunt around garages and find a decent price if I were you.

I normally don't like coloured wheels, unless its black on a black or white on a white car. So i like these :thumbsup:
