Best shocks for non-sports for lowering?

[matt|H]

Looking to lower my car soon about 60/70mm and need to get some prices of uprated shocks. Budget of around £200... not sure if I can get a set for this or not and what brands to look at.

Any advice?

Depends how you drive you can wear out stock shocks with standard springs in 70k

Agreed Spax shock particularly the rears are rubish

I got PI 60mm springs with 30% uprated shocks..cost £260 from top-gear in St-Albans, have to say they are a really good ride..not too hard or soft and can chuck it round the twisties.

Not even gonna consider standard shocks...

So... -1 spax, +1 PI...
