Hey guys, had my car lowered today 60 mm on FK suspension , its still on standard alloys but 16s going as soon as the tyres arrive from rimstyle ...

Before pic .....



After pic(s) ..






P.S Make sure spring compressors are on correctly if you fit your own suspension or the top mount wacks you in the face

Big thanks to CorsAsh for fitting the Kit for me !

Don't remove the rubstrips until further modifications have been applied, else it will look like a 1.0 12v Envoy

Oh, btw, Rob proved to me today that he is 100% committed to the team... he proved it earlier by taking a spring in the face. He's the kinda man that understand when you take a spring in the face, you make a pact, a bond which can never be broken. So you just take that suspension right in the nose.

Be a Taxi for a few days....and watch your corsa sit on the floor when the suspension settles..

Even with those standard wheels, it looks coolio
