    sri springs are supposed to be 15 mm lower but i have heard 20mm aswell i have just put 35mm springs on mine and its still comfortable,if your car has already a lowered suspension then you can drop to 40mm without changing shocks if your car hasnt the sports suspension then i dont know if you want to see what your car will look like with 35mm springs then put enough weight or strap the chassis down to the ground and measure from the underside of the wheel arch to the centre of the wheel should be front 340mm and the rear 350mm well on mine anyway
