Starmags!
I love the look of the starmag alloys but theyre 13 inch and I'm only planning to go -50mm because of prices of coilovers  does anyone think that it will look odd only down 50 on 13 inch wheels? Any pics would be good because I couldn't find any  Vtr by the way if anyone wondered 
Ta guys!

It was fine, Was on the same suspension when it was turned into a track car, Loads of people drove it and said they'd never have guessed it was on cut springs.

Who was the manufacturer of the coilovers? They have to be a good brand to have a good handling with cutted springs I guess.

To pull of the starmags you have to go down atleast 100mm.
I was down on Gaz gha coilivers and bought custom 5" springs from Gaz.
After seeing Davo's saxo with starmags (big respect Davo) made me want to do the same.
Heres how mine was 120mm all round
