Lowered The Cupra 40mm & New Rims

[KingAnt]

Hi Guys

i am getting my car lowered at 10am today!! Cannot wait, i have gone for the cheaper option as im skint so i wet for springs. Next year ill go AP coilovers but like i said as i have no money i got a bargin on some springs.

I went for 40mm all round on Jamex springs, i got them from Race dynamics and i think they were abotu £65 so i was happy, i will let you all know how it looks and handels when they are on so hopefully this thread will help any of you looking at putting lowering springs on your x-mas list lol ill be honest either way - if they are great or if they turn out to be rubbish.

I will put pics before and after when i get in from the garage fitting them.
Thanks guys and hope (when pics r up) this helps you guys

Oh also from the pics (when i uplodaed them after its been done) you will see i have just brought the stock cupra rims s hopefully you all agree they look really good compaired the the dreadfull wolfrace rims that were on it.

Cheers

Ant
