my corsa b's sitting on 195/45/15 TSW venoms. i want to lower it but im not sure how much id get away with with out it rubbing on the back with a full car?? if i dropped it 40mm at the front would GSI rear springs lower the back 20mm?? sure i heard somewhere that GSI springs lower 1.2, 1.4 etc.. by 20mm? true?

y?
what offset are your 15s?
gsi springs will drop a non gsi/sport corsa about 10-15 max not notieable IMO
and if u go for the set up described ull be looking at a very uneven looking car as the back never looks to be stting as low at the fron usually.
unless u have some crazy ass offset 40mmm on 15s will not rub normally
if u have less than say et42 with passengers or on a bumpy road youll get some rubbing but bearable
