im thinking maybe 50mm all round on 14s from what ive read on here and been told by mates, it should handle pretty good but be low enough for me not to want to slam it completely.
its quite strange being able to drive down the road and not have splitters/sills/sumps bottoming out, i got used to the noise lol. also i can change a mk2 golf sump in like 5 minutes flat now haha

i went for the option of slammin it to start with mate, got 60's 2 coils off on short shocks too, not that it held them in place, but anyway, and was on the bump stops rear. then opted to go 40-40, and personaly it seems to sit low enough, and it actually looks lower front end than it did when slammed, also from i raised up, i braced upper and lower, and its better than it ever was... dunno what anyone elses opinion on handlen is about them, but if you want it to skip,slam it, n if you wan it to grip dont lol
