Default I want to lower slightly

Will I be ok with a set of springs on standard dampers, say 35mm drop at the front and 25 at the rear?

Seems like some good offers on at www.motorsportworld.co.uk

I'm running the Eibach springs on standard dampers - can be a bit bouncy on uneven motorways but fine everywhere else. just watch those speed bumps

Martin, before you go diving in to buying a set of lowering springs make sure you don't have self leveling suspension on rear as i think it was standard on sport lux models to stop wheels scraping at back on archs,
