I love how it sit on the H&R springs I was leaning towards the Eibach Sport-lines but have now changed my mind.

I know you've put your standard springs back due to your steep drive but personally I would of moved house.  :signLOL:

Are you on standards shocks if so what milage are you on, I'm on 46k and just wondering if I need to change the shocks I would rather not to keep costs down but I'd like to know if I need too?

Thanks

I know it looked so much better but getting out and putting a ramp there every morning through winter is far from ideal! I might put them back on come spring  :happy2:

Mine is nearly on 60k and they seem fine, I am no mechanic but the way I see it there is no point in fixing something that isn't broken?! I may be corrected by a more knowledgable member but if I was you id just leave them until you get symptoms that they need replacing.

Yes see your point as long as it doesn't feel bouncy or anything - love the car a lot!
