As far as i know this is correct, the torsion bar is on notchs so they get it as near as possible, if ur lowerin the front by 45mm y wud u want more at the back, surely that will look stuid??

the back can be lowered to any height you want and avoid any place that says they lower by notches thats the wrong way to do it

I have had my saxo lowered 40mm on the front and one notch lowered on the back!!! I have spoken to loads of people/companies and they have told me that one notch is -25mm. I am thinking off taking it down another notch (-50mm)but would it look stupid with 40mm on thwe front and 50mm on the back?
