no because there pigtails, you need to have coilover springs to chop them..

nose down is a better stance then rear down, 80mm front 100mm rear would be nice..

take a look at matts car, no offence but the smoke grey one looks shite that low on the rear and doesnt match at the front (looks like its got a dead body in the boot)

even looked around it in person when he come to collect the yellow 3 spokes off me..
