I'm getting some sportlines for my 172 cup and just wondering how they look , so if anyone has any pics would be relly helpfull

^^^^ lol I know they lower 35mm but can it be noticed on with the cup suspension.

 

[lewisniven]

yeah, theyre just right actually, the car sits as it shud with sportline, not with a 12.7 metre gap under the front arches.

i think this was on sportlines:

it does sit a tiny bit lower but you can't really tell lol

 

[doddy]

if it was to go any lower than that in the pic, would it compromise the handling??

^^^ Unless on coilovers then yes.

Depends how and where your going to drive the car, and the quality of the suspension that you buy as to how it will affect the handling!

 

[lewisniven]

you gotta remember that the cup suspension, along with the trophy, is among the best hot hatch suspesnion setup to hit the road ever. In order to improve on it you gotta spend serious wedge, simply slapping some lowering springs on it will make it look cool, but it wont sort ur handing out overall.

these things are b-road weapons, dropping it 30-40mm on springs alone will make b-roads a no-go zone, lol. (if you like your spine)

Peperami (Dan) fitted them to his.... but not sure if he's taken them back off or is in the process of taking them off.... might be worth asking him for piccies
