have lowered corsa 40mm so far on 15's but want to go further!!

Was thinking about 60mm but spax dont do 60mm springs anymore, 40 and 50s for corsa, and seeing as i have spax dampers aswell i figured i'll have to go for the 50s?

Do these still look good, are there any other springs i could use?

cheers!!

the -50mm spax springs are the same springs as the older -60mm (modelnumber is the same) i think they have just revised the drop to be more realistic...

u rarely get wot it says on the tin..just like ronseal..

Basically a 60mm drop wud be more like 50mm and a 40mm drop wud be about 30-35mm drop

heres the thing

went to motorworld earlier and they will do a gmax set of springs to lower it 60mm at 71.99 or a set of spax 50mm springs for 94.99.

What should I get, which will be most comfortable and will they look the bollox?

I will still keep my adjustable spax dampers!
