Too Low or not?

[Chan_P1_TDi_FR]

Just got my car lowered on KW V1's yesterday. handles a lot better with slightly firmer ride. Want to get some opinions on what you guys think. I'm getting the car check again next week after the suspension settles down, at that time i can get the height changed if i want. Also, will a rise in height bring about a softer ride?

Here's some pics:

I think that looks brilliant! Im waiting to have my KW V3's fiited and hope to be at that height if not a fraaaction lower.

Great job mate, I think it sits at just the right height as it is. But like you say it WILL bed in and by this time next week or a little longer it will be lower so you will have to raise it just slightly. Coilovers are a matter of trial and error to try and stike the perfect balance with ride comfort/handling balance.

See how you get on with speed bumps etc... try some different roads, and remember it will be alot lower when you have people in the car

If that was mine, I would probably raise the rear end or drop the front a smidgen as I prefer a slightly more nose down stance. Looks good though

It looks brilliant, but now you need spacers

How many mm has it been lowered?

 

[Chan_P1_TDi_FR]

got it lowered 40mm. handles a lot better. no problems with speed bumps so far, but have to take them a lot slower than before a bit firm for going over speed bumps at more than crawling speed.

look perfect to me.

Does look good but I would be tempted to raise the back up a smidge

 

[jigme]

Think I will go for just lowering springs,would be happy with 30 mm.looks good though what else you got planned

 

[NickP]

This is mine around 25mm down

 

[r6mpr]

looks the part mate just right to me

 

[jigme]

Hi nick p did you change just the springs or the struts also. What make did you go for

 

[NickP]

Just Eibach Proline springs

 

[Jace]

SPOT ON !


If its too low, your too old

 

[truCido]

I think its about right!

The more you lower your car the softer the ride will be, the higher the firmer.
