Default Pic request. Cobra springs

Could anyone post a good side on Pic of an EsCoss with Cobra springs fitted?

I have a set here, just wondering if it's worth fitting them just now or mabey leaving it a while....I have Koni springs just now.

Thanks!

Cheers guys!

tbh Andy, it WAS that side on pic of yours moving that made me buy them. But then i started thinking, in that pic you had a passenger...so mabey they didn't lower it much more than the springs i had...but now i can see they do and it sits perfectly! They're going on! lol

Thanks again! Appreciated

how do they compare to the ahmed spec one mike sells? has anyone tried the both of them - be interesting to see, the cobra ones do look a lil bit lower = more chance of front prop shafts poping out

VERY true Dave-I have Eibachs and I think they are only -25 so my drive shafts should stay put too

They are top notch springs, my mate ran them on M3 E36evo!!! TBH you will have no problem with driveshafts with a -30mm drop, unless you have a broken engine mount. Stoo....put them on.
