Hiya peeps!

I have recently bought my second ford puma, as i managed to have a small collision with a national express coach with the first one after only owning it for a month!

I was just wondering how much to get it lowered by???

 

a mate of mine had his puma lowered 60mm on spax springs on 17's

pretty much perfect

go for that

 

I have got a set of 17's waiting 2 go on, but wanted 2 find out how much 2 lower it by first!

Thanks for that

 

i wouldnt lower it more than 40mm, i have mine lowered by that amount with the frp wheels on it aswell as the rear disc conversion on it aswell, it is horrible to drive and am treying to locate a set of original springs to put on the koni adjustables instead!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

you dont want standard springs on there... i really dont get what you mean by it was horrible to drive

failing that you have to stump up £750 for some coil-overs

 

the original springs and the koni dampers would be great! better than it is now, the koni springs arent any good in my opinion, it seems to have lost handling! not as good as it used to be on standards! too low so it catches!!!!!!!!!!

 

thats your problem you see... koni springs are naff, and the quality of them is worse than standard springs...

koni admit that they're springs are crap and advise you to buy their shocks and then get a different brand of spring

get some eibach or H&R springs on those koni shocks

i cant see how it's gonna be that low, didnt ever have a single prob in my mate's ca with 17's and 60mm drop, tbh it coulda gone down about another 40mm without many probs, IMO you must have the wrong tyre size or offset

 

yes, thats what i said, i have the frp wheels aswell as the rear disc conversion on which buggers up all offsetting as i have said in other posts!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Get soem coilovers!

Drop it 40mm front and 60mm at the back!

 

mines going down 40mm all the way round in next few weeks can't wait finally it wont look like huge pigmy's nesting

 

And Ive got some 7.5" x 17s for sale aswell

 

lol although i like ur wheels they've had some stick think im gonna save and get some OZ's next spring
