20mm.
sixty will be too low in my opinion, Mine was lowered by 25mm and it sat and drove just right.

Sixty would look cool but it would scrape

60mm on 17's will rub and will be a bumpy ride, 20mm is ok but 30-40mm will look and sit perfect, if it was my choice I wouldn't buy gmax due to quality and the springs being 20 or 60mm. Koni's all the way.

Wouldn't waste my money on gmax.... complete tat.
When I first bought my ERST that had 60mm springs on it. It was blooody awful. bumpy, the exhaust would catch on everything and it would skip all over the road on the slightest bump.

sits good but front is lower than the back , some say it's normal i dont know.

Gmax are terrible! Second hand Koni, Spax or Avo would be a better option. Make sure you get the adjustable versions too

Skinny

After all your lot advise I'm not ordering the gmax I'm going to gO for spax vsx they look like a good amount for the money and got good reviews cheer lads

Well not sure what the shocks are like but I had 40mm spax on mine and with only doing 5k on them one of the front spring's had snapped in the middle this was about 2 years ago and there service were poor didn't seem to care that much.

As already said Gmax are shit, my car sat about 20mm higher at the back than the front, looked terrible! Been running a Spax adjustable kit for the last few years.

Yep g-max its official they are shite, go for spax, chassis dynamics or pi springs but personally wouldn't go lower than 35mm

i was down at 60mm on gmax springs when i dropped my rs engine and gear in my mk4, and it scraped my scorpion system so much theres a no a whole to be welded up safe to say i have full gmax 35mm shocks and springs on till i save up for koni's

Skinny

I ordered the suspension today 30mm drop I went for the spax PSX adjustable kit hopefully this will be alright

tat2cliff

i would'nt go any lower than 30mm mate to be honest our roads are shit which makes em shit to drive,buy decent shox and springs and you wont go wrong
