As above.
I don't want it to be silly low, but I'd like it to be noticeable.
Current rear

Current front

The cars a 138 gti and it's got 17" alloys with 205/45/17 tyres.

40mm all round?
I've been looking around and demon tweaks have the biggest range of springs/kits.
But none do 40mm. Lots of 30 and 50mm.
Any suggestions?
I've seen jamax coilovers for £170ish on eBay, no go??
Obvieously coilovers are a good call, but I have a family and can't justify big money.
