lol 3 different answers... our survey says 40 mm. Wouldnt go down too low will be a bugger, my mates jsut dropped his VTS by around 60mm me thinks and its grinding think either he or the car needs to lose weight!

don`t go 60mm mate. mines is 60mm down and its bumpy as fuck. i would say 35-40 would be best. personal if i was to do it again i think it would be 40mm

agree with you mate! i bought gmax all round shocks & springs and 60mm looks the best and still speedbumps aren't an issue

60mm is the way forward!

im surprized speed bumps aren`t an issue as my exhaust scrapes a good few off them about. as for your 60mm not being that bad i suppose it depends on what size wheels you have also. ive got 17"s and it is bumpy. looks mint tho.

mines about 80ish odd and it gets over speed bumps no bother!

I'm toying between 40 or 60. I suggest those whose cars have been lowered post up some pics so us indecisive chaps can see :D
