Hello. Currently i have a 1.2 16v corsa 1999 model and the rear end sits fine but the front sits higher. Im just wondering if i went down to linco and bought some gsi springs how much would this lower my car by ? Also what is the best offset wheels to use on a corsa mine are currently ET38 but i also have some 15 inch whic are ET37. If i was to buy the gsi spring could i pair them up with my dampers or should i use gsi ones aswell. Thanks
