Can someone recommend a good set of lowering springs ?
Will these help with the handling while not make me feel sick going over speed bumps ?
Thanks all.
Paul

Eibachs are well recommended on here as one of the better lowering springs for a Coupe.

Drops the Coupe about 30/35mm.

No, I don't personally, sorry.

I've never had Eibachs on mine.

Any car I drive feels softer than mine, so if I have driven a Coupe with Eibachs on, then I've only noticed a smoother drive due to how harsh mine can be sometimes laugh

Just fitted some - it's extremely good, better than it was with my knackered old standard shocks and springs. You'll want to fit new standard shocks also though...
