That stance makes a huge difference to the look of the car - do you know who did those Billy?

On H&R coilovers

 

 

That's more or less what mine will look like except I specced black mirrors.
Looks lovely sitting closer to the ground in that pic. I wonder what the arch clearance is like? Do they need folding...

Got to admit, I love the look of the car with a lower stance...... You guys have got me thinking now!

Emailed VMR about the 709's as i was considering them aswell, but they are no longer making them!

The alternative is the OZ Superturismo LM's. And that stance on the grey car is spot on!!

Coilovers look a little too low for me I think. Will likely go down the H&R springs route


Gone to find the toys that fell out my pram

Would lowering springs effect warranty?

Already ordered a set of H&R Springs for the missus as an Xmas present (before she'd even picked the car up) .
Billy, are the H&R coilovers not height adjustable?
I showed the missus a picture or the OZ supertourismos a while ago after seeing a photo of them on Jules' widebody B5 and she liked them but she liked them even more after I sent her those photos above. She intended on changing the wheels as she hated the OEM wheels but noe she has the car they have grown on her. I think she might still want to try her BBS CH-Rs on it though. If it was down to me I think I'd be going for the OZ, they are the best wheel I've seen on an 8V so far.

I have to say, on H&R springs, the look is perfect (I would say that wouldn't I :)) and the ride is as per stock (as much as you can tell no difference really), only reason to go coilovers is if you don't have mag ride.
