If you wanna lower on standard shocks your a FOOL i'll give the car 6-12 months before you end up buying new shockers...
Couple of hundred £ will get you a set of GMX -60mm lowering kit, (IIRC £238 is going price for a Corsa Gmax kit) thats gets you four struts and four springs.. now go away and price Struts from vauxhall and see what works out cheaper in the long run

Im not stupid, im just guna run the springs for a couple of months until i can afford my koni adjustables.
Anyway ive jjust been searching through posts and decided im guna stick with the Eibachs which (Joff said) are designed to work with standard shocks.

At my old job I would never Sell anyone Springs that lower the car more than 35mm if they were fitting them to standard Shocks doesnt matter if they are designed to work with standard shocks or not.. your playing and gambling with suspension it's just not worth it
but hey it's your car and your life.. wanna lose one of them go ahead

It's false economy running just springs until you can afford shocks.
Either run with 35mm Eibachs and standard shocks or hold out for a full Koni kit.

I ran 60mm springs on my GSi with standard shocks, its horrendous bouncing everywhere if you hit a series of bumps you are likely to come off the road.
Makes you sea sick
