when nova springs are fitted to corsas are they fully compressed? im sure i read some old posts saying they will be fully compressed


if so will this make the car's ride even more harsh or even more bouncy?

just fit the right springs for the car, a good quality brand spring that sits a little higher will be 10x better than a cheapo spring thats too low and not designed for the car its fitted to.

no point in throwing money down the drain on quality springs if your not botherd about tearing around corners at high speed if its purely for looks then get a set of 60mm nova gmax springs and use your uprated shocks its only a 1.4 you have and not tuned or anything whats the point in spending crazy money on bilsteins ie 300-400 quid when all your looking for is a lowerd stance
