hey all.

i've got a corsa b.. quite an old model but the look from the outside is very nice, however there are a few problems with the car underneath.

my mate is giving me his old lowering springs he had on his old corsa to me for nothing and was going to take it down to the locla garage to put them on.

do you think this is a decent idea? and any idea of the cost?

60mm.

cheers guys. (all post pics later once i find my damn usb cable)

Do you have alloys?

The garage should fit the springs for about £40-50....

Not a good idea to fit 60mm springs to standard shocks, invest in some gas shocks to go with them...

buy a set of gmax shocks, they are fairly cheap but i got them an they are very good your standard shocks will be dead in week if you drop it 60mm

just uprate shocks and get em on

p.s fit em yourself, took me an mate 2hrs with a borrowed spring compressor
