Bloz's Saxo is down about 90mm on the rear if i remember correctly. Wouldnt recommend it though, its just not practical amongst other things

Could be 100mm. Either way he seems to struggle with or be extremely close to alot of speedbumps that are around this area.

He wouldnt have got over the ones at Sutton Park

Cheers people was thinking 60 on the front and 80 on the rear as i don't have any speed bumps to deal with

looks good but i would never go that low tbh, anyway there are shit load of speed bumps round here so it would be a big no no anyway.

prefer a nice subtle 35-40 drop myself.

depends what wheels your have on or plan to put on too mate??

also going down low the PAS pipe will rub a lot more so you will have to bend it out of the way from the tracking/steering arm :y:

they look like 15" or 16". Either one. Going down any more than 60mm on the back just looks shit and well definetley handle badly, you notice the handling more in stability arond fast corners.
