I've also gotto get 4 dunlops for the standard wheels mine have perished where shes been sat in the garage for so long wheres the best place to get these? im in essex. Cheers

 

I've used std ride height Chassis Dynamics(AVO) springs on three different sierras.
Despite thier name they drop around 3/4" to 1", but are excellent, still very very comfy, and work well.

does it look like its been lowered? Just want to keep the old girl original.

 

I fitted standard height chassis dynamic springs to mind, cause like you I wanted the original look. Heres a pic of the car.



Let me know how you get on with the dunlop tyres. I would love a set of the original tyres or even ones that look very similar.

thanks two the both of you for your help your saph is stunning broos how many miles has she covered?

 

Its just went over 51k last summer. Only did about 30 miles in it this year haha

You guys are PERFECT for each other

 

lol

I've done ZERO miles in my car this year but that's because of a melted piston on 29th Dec 08 and engine is being rebuilt. Sump going on today....it looks SO sexy in there!

My van has dunlops on it but only cos they were cheap ha ha. That's the first time I've heard bragging about how LITTLE a car has been driven.

Each to their own I guess. That's what makes this place special
