Hey all ,

Wanting to lower my 180 50mm front. Would I need to change the dampers when going 50mm ??

Also, anyone know of a place that would fit the springs in the West Midlands

You dont have to but i advise to or go for coilovers due to them being so cheap now a days!

And you do realise its torsion bars on the back?

Yer I know its torsion bar at the back. I've heard that cheap coilovers , such as pro sport and FK aren't any good. I would have to get AVO , and they would cost a lot. Springs are cheaper and I know how low I want to go, so they would probably suit me best. I am just not sure whether to change the dampers now.
