what my car was like before i fitted the lowering springs


After i fitted the lowering springs could be a bit lower but have loads of speed bumps where i live so will have to do for now.

Looking good. Im changing my alloys from 15" to 16" then going to lower mine same where I stay except most of the bumps are massive ;( lol. Did you fit springs or coilovers?

Thanks I just fitted springs, I want to change my alloys to 18" mondeo wheels

Theres the ones im getting just noticed theyve gone down in price aswel teehee

Car looking mint now, like the lowering it's not too much but just enough to notice. Well done

Focus looks great

does look better, noticed you will be able go around a corner that little faster....... i made the mistake wit hour escort, once i finished that, it was like a little go cart. you couldnt hit the thinist bump without exhaust grinding

Clare, how long since you have changed the springs? if its recent then it may get a bit lower as they need time to settle, plus if your going to increase the wheel size then it will look much better.

I just changed them this weekend, so hopefully they will settle a little bit lower, thanks for the replies

Did you change the colour too, or just clean it lol

Dont do what i did get in a car park with kerbs and park normally crushing the bumper in the process as it hits the kerb with a whack

Lol no didnt change the colour and hasn't been cleaned for about two weeks lol

Did you change them yourself or get it done at a garage? If at a garage, if you don't mind me asking, how much was it?

Getting far too many ideas from this forum!

Cool, fancy bumping this thread in a month or two saying how they are and if there's further height difference.

Apart from ZS parts on mine, next on the list is suspension and wheels.
