Thanks mate, the ride is pretty much the same as stock aswel, I just took the rear cups out to make it a bit lower as it was a tad nose down when I first put them on! And thanks for the comments on the Orange!!

A fan of the grey and orange, Have you had any rubbing at all with the coilovers so low? Looks quite close at the rear and all i can see in my head is a moving image of going round a corner with lead in your right shoe and resulting in rubbing.. So quite curious as I'm looking at ordering a set of these coilovers myself.

Post by: Edition30nick on June 20, 2015, 07:17:31 am: No rubbing at all mate from the rear, a little bit from front on full lock when driving on weird cambers, or a nasty bump! But nothing to write home about
