60mm practicality...

[WillyB]

Right

Really cant decide between the Eibach Sportlines for my Mark 2 Phase 2, they say they lower it by 45 - 50mm on KAM Racing, but from what Ive heard they don't lower it that much...

OR going 60mm, but how practical is this? I think it looks nicer lowered more but really, how unpractical is this? Curbs, ramps etc etc etc?

Not sure if its worth going 60mm and then having to buy new splitters etc lol

I have tried searching, but cant find anything really for practicality etc

Many thanks!

ive just done mine 40mm today and i can imagine 60mm just being soo unpractical, my subwoofers are making the back end sit down soo much looks like 60mm i reckon

40mm is a nice ride height imo. Eibachs dont look that good on a non sport either.

Sportlines on my 1.2 look great imo, the 172 will be getting dropped on coilovers. But i think the sportlines give a nice drop on my car

theres one just below my post, thats the only one i have with it on 16's. But in the suspension section theres a stickied thread with more pics in. They were when i put them on, and i would say it settled down a fair bit further.


The rides not spine judderingly bad either (Y)
