Hey guys, looking at a suspension kit for the corsa since both rear coils have snapped.

I have a limited cash amount of around £250 so these are within the price range - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk:80/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260018487342&sspagename=ADME:B:AAQ:UK:1

If anyone could give me a review of them and if they are decent etc that would be awesome.

Also both my rear coils have snapped and everythings sitting on the rubber support (haven't looked myself) Would this make my car sit lower at the back? Due to my old arch (metal bit) sits 32mm above my wheel and i was thinking if it needs cutting/rounding out a little.

Anyhoo...need a kit asap to pass MOT so any advice is welcome.

For that price you want to steer clear of coilovers.

I gathered that since they cost around £500 on average im just looking for a suspension kit...something to lower the car but give a better ride than just lowering springs.

I think you could probably get a Koni kit for that much cash...

Spax are crap. I'd get weitec myself.

Or i might just steer clear of boyracer suspension and get KWBAGX gas adjustable shocks.
