Tomm Smith Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 If you buy lowering springs do you need to buy new shocks as well? Could anyone with a fiesta zetec s mk7 tell me what's a good amount to lower it by? Sent from my Nexus 4 using Ford OC mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karlos1987 Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 No you do not need to buy new shocks. I have a focus and have lowered it just by springs and kept stock shocks. However I will be soon buying a whole new complete coil over set up as the ride is not to my taste. All depends on your preferences and budget to be honest. Might be worth doing a little vote to see what others recommend. Sent from my C5303 using Ford OC mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiestaGirl89 Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 I've got a Mk7 Titanium and I've just bought Eibach 40mm lowering springs. ( Im not 100% sure but I've heard the Titanuim sits 10mm higher than other models) They've not actually arrived yet but I'll be uploading pics when there on :) Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karlos1987 Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 To be honest with you I have no experience with coil overs. I have heard of someone who had ap adjustable coil overs and 1 of them had seized/cross threaded. I'm sure if you check reviews on them you should get a rough idea of which is best. I would say 35/40mm drop is a safe drop. Sent from my C5303 using Ford OC mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
