right, im looking to get a fixed rate setup.

From what ive read, 40mm seems to be best for handling wise, 60mm for looks

I was thinking 50mm to get the best of both?

This is on ET49 195/50/15 Vaux rims.

Thank you, Tom

Iv got 40mm gmax springs on standard shocks and the handling is greatly improved over standard but its a little bouncy due to the shocks.

Have a look in my garage for it lowered on 205/50/15 tigra alloys

for road use?

nothing comes close to the bilstein B10 kits for quality and value for money. 50mm all round.

To be honest Dave, i was 90% going to get that kit from you, did you say the 50mm springs are different, because the standard kit is 60/40.
