Will do, the photo at the start of the thread showing the difference between the springs themself was taken today as I had a spare set of normal srings from an elite in my garage 8-)

They are quite straightforward to fit. Hardest bit is removing the old as they stretch after extended use. The new lowereds kind off slip in without too much hassle. Tops an hour a side..... :y

With or without tyres

How much did the springs cost mate if you don't mind me asking? I wouldn't mind a set myself, the standard MV6 springs are far too soft IMO, would hate to think what standard Elite ones are like :o
Cheers.

without, change over my existing onto the new rims, also get the camber done aswell.

Cheers, yeah noticed those, looks like a great deal if the price stays reasonable... My only concern is this part "ca.30mm für Fahrzeuge ohne Xenon" -- I don't expect it makes any difference in reality but why does it state without Xenon (HIDs)?
How do they perform compared to the standard MV6 springs (assuming you've got them fitted)? And what kind of dampers are you pairing them with? I notice the eBay seller has Irmscher dampers too... I have recently replaced my rears but I might go for a set of Irmschers anyway.
-
Not fitted to the MV6 Yet, but my Elite has full irmscher suspension kit, dampers and springs and they are very stiff, with the MV6 I'II keep the original dampers paired with the irmscher springs :y

Sounds good, I might stick with the original dampers for now and see how the ride and handling is. The dampers look like they'll be a bit more expensive than the springs too. Did you win the item on fleabay or just contact the guy directly? If the latter could you ask him if he'll do me a set for £50 too? My German is a little rusty ;) Cheers 8-)
