60mm all round but save up for springs AND shocks.

You could get away with -60mm on the standard shocks for a bit, but it'd wreck them after while. You'd be a bit safer with 40mm.

Look in classifieds, there's a few people selling various springs.

His noble self is right though, you'd be better off saving up for the whole lot.

You can get a full set of second hand springs and shocks for as litle as £60-£80 if you look hard enough.
