Can peeps please put up pics of their esc cos with spec of their suspension. Mine doesnt sit very level for some reason (lower at the back) So i might get different springs??
Not the best pic but it could do with being an inch lower at the front.

I have a Bilstein sprintline kit on mine and it sits the same as yours two low at the back and two high at the front!
what springs would mine have(don't say bilstein ) and what are the best ones to fit that give the best ride height ?



Dave.


PS the springs are red progresive ones.

ian rst

cant really see yours Paul bit too dark.

I was thinking Armed or eibach springs but thought Armed's didnt really lower it much?

Excessive lowering KILLS the handling anyway .

I can only speak for the saff fitment of the Koni's and Ahmed springs but i cant imgaine them being too much different with the 4x4 escos setup. It is amazing how it transformed my car from a wallowy lardy un-eventful handling car into a lovely refined and confident car. To look at you wouldnt really notice the ride height difference but as Mike says, lower it too much and handling will suffer which is the whole reason you put new and decent suspension on in the 1st place- to make it handle properly

Yeah i soppose your right just wanted it to sit level really. So long as its lowered about 25 - 30mm and sits level that will do me.

Mine has bilstein kit and I believe its pretty much at standard ride height. This pic was taken on a slight incline so is slightly up on that side and is slightly lower when on a flat.



The escos needs that ''front down, rear up'' look in my opinion. I think you can spoil the whole look by lowering too much, and it can sometimes make them look like replicas.

I think Im right in thinking its better for handling to have the front pointing down with the rear slightly higher anyway.

i'll get some side pic's of mine later! - just one thing, am I the only that had developed a dustinct fear of speed bumps?

I think i will be getting some eibach springs then, judging by what i have seen they sit the best. thanks lads

I am having some Eibachs fitted on Friday. not sure what the previous springs were, all I know is that they were progressive ones, but they're really shagged now.
