Hi there recently searching some springs for my mates corsa redtop track car. I stumbled accross some 110mm springs for one. Since we was only after 40 springs we left them but do any saxos have 100mm springs as I want it kissing the pavement :)

I wouldn't recommend more than 60mm with springs on standard shocks :S

40-50mm looks well and doesnt ruin the handling or geometry of the car mate

Ok matey will coil overs get me to 100 tho? Could I just take of the springs? Surely it'll hit the deck then??

take the springs off? take all four wheels off, then it will hit the deck. will probably be safer to take all your wheels off then your springs...

Just cut your springs to whatever drop you desire :)




On 2nd thoughts no don't do that
