60mm on P.i springs

 

[R3OBC]

*kit* *kit* *kit* trust me its the way to do it!!

 

[RobFenn]

If its not coilovers, why bother?

[R3OBC]

if its coilovers and not at least 100mm, why bother?

 

[Ali]

^ Exactly, Robs is perfect in that pic, jus needs 17s!

 

[RobFenn]

Problem with 17s is they cost a shed load, and then there are the tyres! I wouldnt of been able to afford anything else. Besides, i take performance (if i can use that word with the 1.2) over style..although i was disappointed that the Turinis werent as lightweight as the marketing spiel made out.

-Rob

 

[Ali]

^ Mayb when i get older ill appreciate ur view, but style will always win with me at the moment! like u said its only a 1.2! However ur setup was perfect! Perfect height and Those Brakes! ooooo!

 

[Pauldredge]

but what about if i want it on the cheap, am getting springs for about £50 then will get them fitted and that will probably cost around a 100 no doubt.

all im worried about is would just the springs damage my car in anyway?

 

[mr sheep]

not damage your car be the ride will be sh*te

trust me i know

[Pauldredge]

so it will be alrite just on springs but the ride will be a bit crappy. i will just have springs i reckon then and then save up for dampers and everything else that i will need.

Doyle what alloys are they?

 

[Gareth]

i had my old 1.2 mk2 lowered 60mm on 17s and it f**ked the ball joints and driveshaft, will try and get some pics of the car up tomorrow, looked wickid though!

firstly the ride will not be crappy 2 of my mates sed to me to watch out becos my shockers would be f**ked within a short period and the ride would be bumpy but i dont think it is, I think its just as comfy as before i got it lowered and it feels more "sporty" if ye know what i mean. The alloys are 15" OZ F1 CUPS.

 

[Gareth]

^^ Maybe true, but with 17s its a TOTALLY different ball game!!

 

[Doyle]

ok i agree with u there as i dont know what it is like with 17s

 

[Pauldredge]

ive got 16s, will that be ok?

 

[Ali]

The ride is GAY! enough said.
