Suspension Mods

[Terry 181258]

Hi all, Don't confess to know allot about suspension and have not carried any mods for years on suspension as I find that SRI models are usualy firm and a little lower anyway whch is what i've had for years.

I now have a 55 plate 1.9 CDTI Design (150) and would like to change the wheels to 17" SRI facelift alloys and lower & firm up the suspension at little, fit some side skirts ect just to make it look a little sportier and to make it handle just a little better and stop a little bit if body roll when cornering.

The question is: How much shall I lower it ? which just springs or springs and shocks ? and finally any idea's where I can buy whats needed ? without busting the bank.

Cheers

Lower by 30-40mm, many members have gone for Eibach springs and Bilstein B4 or B6 dampers, good allround affordable combination, have a look at LMF for these babies, http://www.lmfvauxhall.co.uk/store/home.php?cat=2288 (bilstein) but can't seem to find Eibach on their site - they used to do them
