I wonder how much money you would have if you got a quid for every time someone asked you how low your car is and does it rub

dont u have trouble of the coils slapping together and bottoming out
my white one was on jamex springs and they were terrible for that, but they were half as compressed as them badlads lol
nope they are a real good ride feels so solid around corners and it never bottoms out
and my tyres are 195/45/15
The problem is. When the springs bottom out you get metal hitting metal very hard. When the dampers bottom out there is a nice big bit of rubber there to bottom out onto. The damper should always bottom out before the spring.
