    i dont know what to do..

    i want to lower my lupo and get new alloys.

    i havent got the money for coilovers at the moment.
    i was looking at some lowing springs. it said i can get a drop of 40mm for only 64.99.

    what is the catch with them.



    is there any thing else i can buy to lower the car?

    cheers

    lowering springs is your cheapest way, and although i wouldn't recommend it, i spose with your car being pretty new, the standard shocks would be 'ok' with uprated and shortened springs. but i'd got for a full on kit for which you looking at around 200 for the cheaper end of the market

    ah yeah, are you doing it yourself or getting them fitted?

    for 200 i would expect an uprated spring and damper set, have a look at venom or spax or somewhere for ideas.

    wtf?

    40mm lower spring about 50-60 from euro car parts!

    not the best but if you wanna do it cheap for now it will do.
