I'm wanting that extra low look with my car so I think I'm going to go for a G-Max 60mm Shock and Spring kit but I don't think I'll get the back low enough or how I would want it with that springs. I've seen people fitting v-sport 90mm springs and that lowers it nicely at the back, where do you get these springs and would they be ok with g-max shocks?

Does anybody have any pictures of corsas lowered 90mm at the back? Has anybody had this done? does it cause problems or not? (such as scraping)

mark is yours 90mm at the front too? I think yours sits just perfect. I've got speedlines on mine so should look similar.

has anyone had to wait for these springs to settle out before you get that really low look or does it happen instantly when you put them in?

think I'm closing on 700miles on the 90mm springs and there no where near 90mm. Is there a possibility they will still drop or is that it? my 50mm PI springs were just as low.
