because it is crap! as the lower spring usually has alot softer spring rate, and the dampers are not made shorter... and slammed looks gay.
and also learn to take my posts as a bit of tongue in cheek

Because its to low. Driving about on your bump stops make the car very unsafe on the open road. I have tried all manner of highest on the track and even on the track I would not run 60mm.

well some people like it for looks and i dont find being down 60 bad at all you get used to the ride, mines been like that for 4 years now and nothing has happened so cant be that unsafe
tongue in cheek wtf are you going on about ??
and the fact is rich is wanting 60mm spring so back onto the topic and if you want to argue the point argue with a load of people on here who are down 60mm, you have to remember were not all into doing track days and want it for handling purposes

LOL ryan..

If you want to go super low get coilovers so it handles with some respect..

but you say looks.. you class what as looks? so slammed means looks? you accuse me of saying im all about performance, whats to say a hard spring at 80mm might not perform, you seem to think that 60mm is the only way for looks and anything else is not.
think about it

Fook me children leave it out if people want 60mm let them do it. People have there choices an thats the way of life if it werent we'd all be the same an it would be boring.
Have you tried spax mate think they do a 60mm kit
