im lookin to get new springs as the ones ive got are way too low at the mo,im on 16's just now and about 50mm drop
ive got 17's to go on so whats the best drop to get with 17's?25mm?30mm?
also which springs seem to be the most popular amongst rs turbo owners
any pics of erst on 17's would be much appreciated also list your make of spring and much lowered by

The springs I use on mine (Cobra - which I can supply) are IMO the best for 17's. They amount to around 25-30mm drop and seem to have found the balance between good handling and decent ride quality.

Iam running 205/40 17" on G-max damper & springs with 40mm drop. It's good, exept maybe when the backseats filled up and I hit a bump

im running 7.5 x 17 dymags 205/40/17 tyres

and a 40mm drop on gmax springs and shocks

and it rubbede everywhere

took my front arch lip all the up and flat and ground the kiit to match

backend same as front but had to mdify back bumper by grinding the edge off

because thats where it rubbed most

i can have a car fully loaded and doesnt rub any where

as above, 60mm on 17s (ignore sig) its not so much the arches that catches on the back its the bumper inner lip, just cut it out and flat down with wet and dry so its neat

been lookin and i think ill go 30mm,that will be a good comprimise between handling and looks,who does 30mm lowering springs?are apex ones any good?

My rst was dropped aorund the -35mm mark i believe!

using avo springs!

I had arch mods & rear bumper mods so didnt get any form of rubbing!

I run 7.5" RS7's dropped 25mm on PI shocks and springs, not the best suspension in the world...but does the job. I haven't modded my arches either, the fronts catch just on full lock on the arch liners and the back springs have assistors in as they would catch on bumps, fine now. pics in the gallery

Got -30mm Spax on mine with 17's.

Ride and handling are great and i've never had wheel are rub, and i've not had the arches modified.
