Sending the Bilstein B10 kit back so had to purchase some other suspension until i find a new car and bought the jamex -60mm lowering kit for now and the rear sits like this.

I think they have sent me 60/40 kit instead

My brother got a -60mm Jamex kit for his Nova and the back sat quite high as well, think we just put some different -60mm springs on the rear Jamex shocks and it lowered it a bit more

It was either fit standard springs and shocks and drive my car round like a monster truck or buy a cheap kit just for the time being so decided to get the cheap kit as i dont know how long its gonna take for me to find the right car.

I bought the same Jamex springs for my Corsa and the rear looked more like 30/40 than 60, looks just like yours tbh. I always wondered if they sent me 40mm springs by mistake.

Go over a couple of speed humps and that settles it.

Mine looked no different months after than it did straight after they were fitted.
