will that not upset the balance though wille, 23mm rear 25mm front, although the rear is 3 notch adjustable, its on the stiffest now.... went for a blast tonight, with the tt bushes and s3 lower fitted, feels good tbh.. may upgrade shocks, tempted still with coilies, may just go weitec springs and shocks.

so i take it in summary its best to upgrade the bushes, etc. Before lowering the Leon?
Yup, get everything else sorted out first then worry about the suspension.
But most people change the suspension for looks.
If your doing it for that then don't worry about your bushes, ARB's and Strutt braces and just change the suspension.

God I'm getting gooood at the subtlety thing

well done willy....

just do all of it at the same time and be prepared for a transformed car.

just done.

s3 lower, tt wishbones, s3 upper, new oem front wishbone bushes

coupled with rear arb and lowered suspension the car is transformed.

new ds2500s to be fitted and weitec shocks and springs, with new falken f452s and ill be a happy bunny then.
