show me how much your car is lowerd on 15" wheels

[Curtoise]

i currently have coilovers but am getting fed up with the camber bolts and the overall ride of them,

i always prefer shocks and springs but i am not sure how low to go?

can you show me your lowerd nova's and say how much it is dropped by

thanks! :thumb:

Here's mine, lowered around 70mm on the front (coil overs) and 110mm springs on the rear, sat on ceaseros.

I would try and leave it that height, looks smart.

Mine does sit a little lower now, as this was when I put the suspension on and it hadnt settled.

[Curtoise]

oh right fair enough, yeah this is the thing, i dont want to go any lower i just want to swap to shocks and springs! my rear springs are ones i cut and welded up to make them smaller so i have no idea what mm they would be!

My old SR with 60mm front drop and the springs on the rear were FK's on the lowest setting.

40mm iirc, certainly not more than 60 anyway.

[Southie]

RJ those tyres would loose you 50mm lol

[Jack]

Fill the arches and gave a nice smooooooth ride. I'm built for comfort, not speed lol

[turbojolt]

Lowered around 60 or 70 mm on astra sxi alloys

lol Jack, helium is not the answer.

What's the problem with the current coilovers & camber bolts?

[staggy_gsi]

you will still have camber even when you go back to shock & spring so I would still be fitting the camber bolts if it were my car....

I understand what you're saying about the ride on some coily's though

[Curtoise]

The camber bolts I just find abit irritating to work with as it puts the tracking out everytime you have the shock off,
You are right about the shocks though I would still need camber bolts or it would scrub the inside of my tyres :( save up for some decent coilies it is then !
