My car has failed its mot for a cracked rear coil spring
So instead of just gettin that one repaired i might aswell buy a full set of springs to lower my car at the same time!

If i can afford i'd like to buy a full kit including some dampers.
I'd like to lower it 60mm, but i think i'll have to lower it 40mm so i can get down the country lane with big speed humps to work!!

Ive been lookin lots in catalogues at 40mm springs & full suspension kits, and there's so many to choose from!!

Im quite tempted to buy the spax vsx uprated kit for £249.99
Or the gmax 40mm springs for £88.99
Or the gmax 40mm supersport kit for £254.99

I don't really want the ride to be too hard due to all the bad roads with pot holes near me!

What makes of springs and kits do you recommend?

Cheers Ness
