Need Lowering Springs

[welshpug 1,622]

my input would be to say stop being so daft and fit the standard springs, as you have found standard dampers are not designed to run this low.

 

 

if you really want to run low you'll need shortened dampers with appropriate springs, going this low will need ride height adjustable dampers, commonly referred to as "coilovers"

 

 

 

what you also have to bear in mind is the rear suspension, it is a very compromised design at best, the angle of the damper and its ratio to the wheel movement is far from ideal, running on the bumpstops will exacerbate its faults, and ultimately give you an awful ride and lack of grip.
