Guest s.odedra Posted June 8, 2006 i just got a 1.9 want to lower it would like it seating just above the tyre about 10 mm of the wheel just like to know wot drop people have done... and wot set of spring (kit) was used..... pics would be very helpful Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PsychoSimon 0 Posted June 12, 2006 http://forum.205gtidrivers.com/index.php?showtopic=57873&hl= This is mine. its lowered 35mm on spax adjustables all round, with the torsion bars lowered one whole spline. It handles immensely better than it did when it was lowered 55mm Hope this helps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alastairh 47 Posted June 12, 2006 Heres mine roughly 30 - 35mm. Also running a 309 beam at the rear. Alastair Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
j_turnell 137 3 Cars Posted June 12, 2006 (edited) Heres mine, very similar to Al's lowered -35mm on Avo coilovers with 309 beam running Koni adjustable dampers dropped one spline. Handles very very well Edited June 12, 2006 by j_turnell Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

keith 0 Posted June 14, 2006 i've got 16's with 40mm drop, personally, i wouldnt reccomend it. 35 seems to be that wee bitty better Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sonofsam 5 Posted June 14, 2006 Here's mine lowered 30mm on Koni adjustables and 16" wheels Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scotthall39 0 Posted June 22, 2006 Personnaly i wouldn't go any lower than -40mm as it will destroy the handling as for the rear tyres rubbing, best way would be to fit the 309 rear beam and would vastly improve the handling. Give me a shout if your interested in a beam Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
