i dropped 35mm and was fantasic on AVo kit

i have read that any more than 40mm is a compromise for ride, 50+mm certainly.
have to agree with Adz really

Height means bollocks all.

To get the best handling you need to ensure perfect suspension geometry and damping.

I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.

I'd say 20-30mm eibach springs with bilstein shocks with full geometry setup, on to a winner
