I started at 40mm, was happy with it for a bit but went for 60mm in the end. Looked soo much better.

mate, just wait until you can afford shocks and springs. no point in spending 100 quid now and then a month or two down the line and spending another couple hundred on shocks aswell.
save up and do it all once.

well worth it, handles so much better without the horrid ride
