Default Lowering a S2

i beleive my s2 to be lowerd when i bought it because i can just about see the purple paint thru the rust on the front springs, i cant make out the rear.

when a s2 is lowerd say 25mm will the gap between the arch and the wheel be even? for front and rear?

on mine between the wheel and arch, the gap at the front is smaller than the gap on the rear

is this normal? or i think maybe my s2 might have only lowering springs on the front?

hello mate

it depend on the springs tbh , some springs will lower the front more than the back and thats imo a good thing cos when ur booting it the car will sit pretty much level insted of looking like a speed boat lol

A slightly higher back end is a good thing mate.

Don't be tempted to slam the car as it will handle like a big bucket of arse
