I got a corsa b with 195-50-15 in F1 alessios with standard shocks (gas) and its lowered 50mm with OMP spring kit in 4 corners. The cornering is superb, it feels like al real racing car, but can be annoying at some tiime. Im thinking in an adjustable OMP shocks kit. Do you think it will improve the ride?

not really, probably make it harder, mines is lowered 60mm on apex shocks and the ride is shocking sometimes. But, it looks great lol

a set of koni adjustable shocks ill stop the the body role and any wheels scrunbage you may be getting but they can make the ride a lot stiffer (depending on where you set the stifness at) so you can feel every bump! all i can say mate it dont matter about the bumps if you think the ride is harsh then try driving and origal mini!! no suspention

is the ride really that much sacrificed??
all my passengers (friends & family) are very picky, they always find something to complain about, if its not my driving, its my car!!

will i (they) notice much of a diff with a 40mm suspension??

i have top adjustable koni adjustables, set them on soft, and its not much harsher than standard. stick them on hard however and the grip is awesome however its really bumpy.
