Bilstein B4 and Irmscher springs give 30mm drop, MV6 springs give 15mm drop :y

Any lower and you get insane rear tyre wear :-\

Thanks bud. Im just mad on insane lowered cars, always have been. Mostly only for cruises and stuff. Would there be a way to lower it and slow the tyre wear. It's sittn on 17" Mv6 wheels n jus want it to sit tidy just above the tyres.

The problem is camber. The shorter the springs, the greater the camber :-\

Technics coil overs on eBay are the best value for money, they seem to be reasonable at around the £300 mark and having known them to be fitted not bad quality either

You will get about a 60mm drop from these, alternatively 30-35mm on a decent set of springs  :)
