Why?

Big Drop Springs:

1. Poor Ride
2. Terrible Handling
3. Tend to be yellow

All in all = Fail

so true

cause at this time some people cant afford coilovers! so springs will do at the moment!!!

sportlines are supposed to be 'up to' 55mm, though i don't think they actually go that low.

theres apex but the ride on them are suppose to be shocking. ^^i think thats for the non sports but even then like you say they dont go that low

Do what?

Save the money mate, or buy Eibach prolines.

 

[adams182]

dont think they go lower than 40mm! might just get 40mm anyone got pictures of 40mm drop cheers

The car already has suspension I takeit but because costs are tight its better to take something that works and make it rubish?

know someone that has, but works in a modifying garage

oh and
1 wrong - the roads are s**t but newer suspension helps imo
2 wrong - handling is much better! especially in corners
3 wrong - most are red & can hardly see em

iv lowered my 1.2 on 60 mm springs. I WONT be doing it to my RS.

 

[whatisjustis]

Apex springs are the lowest drop you'll get before coilovers. Coilovers can lower anywhere between 25 - 70mm (kit depending).

I've got a set of Apex on my 172 and in all honesty, the ride doesn't deserve the rep it has.

get eibach sportlines mate, it says around 55mm front and 30mm rear but they sit very nicely

I'm annother running Apex springs on my 172, very nice drop and the ride ain't that bad at all, cant believe how many people moan about the harshness of the ride.
Did a 1400 mile trip to germany and neither of my two passengers moaned about the ride quality....so its not that bad.
