Looks good. Was thinking of just doing the front as the back doesnt seem too bad. Guess you had a full geometry check after?

The tein springs don't bring the back down very much. Just enough to level it off with the front. Think they are like a 35 front 20 rear drop but don't quote me on that.

Yea full geometry will be required after as camber and tracking angles will change as the car sits lower.

I'm interested in lowering the car slighty, what's the best things to get? Not to good with things like this .. Cheers

Eibach springs are the best ride/handeling compramise for stock shocks.

Better at what?
Lowering, track use handling, improving longevity of shocks?

Yea, I've read that and also read many other threads saying that the Tein are crashy and harsh. So many mixed opinions and I guess it comes down to brand preference at the end of the day.
Ordered some Tein last night so will hopefully get them in time to fit them on Thursday. The Mrs is going to pay for the geometry adjustments for my B'day present :D

Bought mine from camskill £128 plus £9.99 postage

The ride handling compramise is better on the Eibach, get on a bumpy road and then feel the ride diff.
