Lowering Springs

[Martin]

hi guys!

im looking to get some lowering springs for my 1.2 k12 sport+.
Any suggestions on how much i could lower it, i was hoping for a drop of 50mm, but i dont want any rubbing on the wheel arches though! also anbody recomened any brands to use or to stay away from.

i am looking to buy a set myself too but i cant seem to find a set that can lower more than 40mm.

The Koni springs seem to get quite good reviews:

there's also tien and eibach springs available, again i think they only lower 30-40mm.

I used Koni. Could lower to 40mm, but only went to 30mm on standard shocks. Handling is second to none now, it really is. But looks wise, I can only just tell, but many other people cant to be honest.

i am thinking about koni seriously but 30mm doesnt seem like much.
