can i have your opinions on how low you can go with springs without shortend shocks please.

obviously its not good for standard shocks lowering by 35mm anyway (i have 35mm already) but i would like to know wats the lowest i can go with springs withought rattling about and stuff :S
 
trial and error mate. Depends on a lot of things i.e. how you drive your car and what kind of weight your puttin in the car etc. I wouldnt like to go any more than 45mm on standards but at the end of the day its up to you
 
If your going seriously low, i.e. 60mm and beyond, you should be budgetting for shocks anyway. The ride will be appauling with standard shocks, and handling terrible.

You can get a set of gas shocks for under £150 delivered :)

Those numbers are referring to the date of when your car was manufactured.

So using the above example, which is for all K11's by the way, the "8/92>12/02" is simply saying from August 1992 to December 2002.

:)

me and pete bought em around the same time, i personally would strongly reccomend em. worth every penny! Not sure if Pete has his on or not yet so dunno what he thinks
