As many people now know i've fitted 18"s and my cars dropped 40mm... so how can i make it look lower again without lowering it anymore coz everyone says it drives crap with 60mm or more

I need to blend a rear diffuser in at some point

As anyone seen airbags or hydrolics at a decent price????

with 18s on you wont get brilliant handling cos of the size of them so id say defo lower it more than 40mm.

I agree.

Slam it to the floor, coz with 18's ur handling isnt going to be a big issue.

If it is get smaller wheels

Lower it more.

If handlings important, get coilovers.

Otherwise, airbags start at ?600 for the most basic set-up (supply only, and may need adapting to fit). Fitted? Price is from about ?1500 to ?3000 for a top set-up.
