Right ive had enough of the previous owners codge job on the suspension.....
Spax springs, 2 koni shocks on the back and standard shocks on the front....erm yer nice on dickface lol
Anyway i dont want it any lower than 40mm due to 17's, i want a comfortable ride i dont mind hard but i dont want to start having back problems due to the stiffness of the ride!
I cud just get 2 koni shocks to replace the fronts but the cheapest i can get them is £85 each which is basicully nearly the same price as a new full kit which tbh might be the better option!
So any tips!?
Cheers

Where can ya get a good suspension kit 4 £170 ????
If u want a decent ride quality I wud defnitly reccomend spending a bit extra and getting a billstein sprintline kit 4 £300, the ride quality is excellent it lowers it 35 mm it is top quality stuff. i've had loads of suspension kits and have never bn happy with any of thm, but the billstein kit is the best available 4 the corsa.

thats for each shock! not the kit!
I dont mind paying extra to get a full kit, but that bilstein kit altho while sounding appealing is just a little bit more than i wanted to go and spend!
Looks like ill be getting the matching fronts then!
