Hi,

Im onto my next thing for my sax lowering... so have idea of shocks and springs but how low should i go for a nice allround good look and not daft so i can still get in car parks and go over speedbumps.

I was thinking 50-60mm allround??

Opinions please.
And pics of your cars lowered thanks.

:y::hug:

50mm apex kit with the rear at 50 or 45mm Don't go for reverse rake like so many people do. Looks shit.

195 width. It would rub on full lock at standard height. You'd think they would of modified it for VTS.. Hammer does the trick anyway :P

That silver one isn't 50-60mm on the front.. mine looks lower and it's at -35mm lol.

I think the 50mm apex kit will do the job like Josh said. That's the kit I'll be ordering.

As already said, dont lower the back more than the front, it looks 'broken' and also has a negative affect on the handling.
A 50mm drop is a popular choice, and if you lower the rear around 50mm too, it will have a nice stance to it, handle well and you will be able to live with it on a day to day basis.

50mm all round should look pretty good.
