How low can i go at the rear

[Deano-astra]

aslright, recently bought my 2nd astra gsi phase 2 this time though

its got a 60mm kit on it, think made by ATP or something and some bilstein shox all round... but it aint low enough at the back.. the car is running 18's at the moment, which i was wanting to change to 17's or something

had a few ppl in the back of car today with wheels tucked up the arches and it looked pretty sweet..

can u buy coilovers just for the rear? or platform adjusters or something iom sure i have saw somewhere............

stick sum nova 60s in will be -85mm then m8

if you stick 60mm nova springs on you will have to fit the nova uprated shocks,may have to modify them to fit,slightly,but if you dont fit them itl bottom out.my mate had them on is looked nice and wasnt a bad ride either

Or u cud do it the cheap way.Heat up ur lowering springs and clamp them in a vice.Thats wot ive done and had no problems at all.Started with -40s now it sits about -100mm on speedlines.

how do you know how low to clamp them or is it just guess work?????
