got an s2 and it looks standard ride height but looking at the suspension tells me that it has aftermarket bits on. Im thinking that it has only been lowered around 25mm.
Im after something more lower and havent really got the money to afford coilovers yet.
Can anyone post some pics or links of there s2's riding on 15 inch alloys and let me know how much they lowered it by.

Thanks

My std springs broke in half so i needed a quick replacement, found a set of -60mm springs in a friends garage.

definitely mucks up the handling! understeer can be a bit bad at times! decent set of shocks and a bit of alignment can help, but i would stick to 25mm.

mines lowered on coilovers and handles like a dream, the only problem i get is when im on my 17s and sometimes if i have someone in the back it scrapes. no problem now its striped out..

40 is about right i think,

I agree 40mm is about right or you can go 50mm if you want looks more than handing round hard corners.

AVO (Chassis Dynamics). You get them in -20mm and -35mm.

Mines lowered 25mm on SPAX shocks and springs and handles alright and looks good aswell if u ask me.

blueskies85

anyone know where i can find a pic of the s2 dropped with 60mm springs on standard alloys?

blueskies85

yeah mine too it handles really nicely but i just want a lower look tbh

RSMK4TURBO

Here is mine im not to sure how low,it may be 40mm or even 60mm but i cant move car now with 17"s as wheels foul the arches now.Doesnt rub with standard rims.
Anyone using 17"s with 40mm drop?

Ad4m RST

Usually I'd say no more than 35mm...

But feeling a bit Euro, blame the continental breakfast.

-700mm

Nice Photoshopping mate!

blueskies85

ha ha thats low.... well shopped man!

anyone know the cheapest place i can buy some 60mm springs? i put a request for some in the wanted section but thought id ask here too.

makaveli96

Here's a picture of mine when I had the original rs alloys on, that's a 50mm drop I do have to say it never rubbed at the front even when I had 3 people sitting at the back but I would advice not to go 60mm that will be too much especially if you decide to put 17" on.

blueskies85

nice one makaveli.. thanks for sending those pics mate. it looks well nice and low... think ill stick with 50mm. I ill never go up to 17s mate im gonna stick with 15's maybe get some rota slips but get em a little wider.

blueskies85

bought some cobra 50mm today from Halfords of all places ha ha... everywhere else never had any or could only offer 25 to 40 mm, cost a bit but they are going to call me when they arrive so its easy money! makaveli are yours cobra springs? your car looks mint mate!

blueskies85

ok fitted the springs today im happy but will they drop any more as they run in and if so by how much roughly?
