salsheikh Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 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.

Andy H Dibley Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 No there pro sport 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
