Pic request....182 suspension

[woza]

I currently have a 182 without a cup suspension, am looking at buying eibach lowering springs, i think they will lower by about 8-10mm??

Anyone have any side on pictures of how this will look on the 182, its 5mm lower than the cup suspension!!

Woza.

Arctic looks like a tractor lol, not got picks here but my 182 was non cup packed and i put eibach sportlines on, the difference is very noticeable. More lowering at the front, less at the back, probs 30mm at front and 15mm at the back.
Sure someone else will have pics though.

does it really lower it by 30mm? that seems like quite a lot!

Its only 3cm. Its quite hard to tell and tbh i've not measured it. But theres only a very small gap now in between the tire and arch.

When it was done at GDI i could instantly see the difference.

Someone may correct me here but think the way mine sits may be due to how its used i.e. ive never had rear passengers and mainly there me and the mrs in the front so the front seems a bit lower than the back.

Sure ive heard people carrying round bags of cement in their boots to bed the springs in.
I like the look of the car with the front lower than the back.
