Nope my car is on stilts, currently they are reduced from about £500 to £400ish and are made by KW and the ride is meant to be good. Steve_PD and Topher on here both have them.

i want to be able to lower my car on my 19 inch wheels as low as i can to the wheels without rubbing
so i want the suspension to not travel alot as it goes up and down, i dont want a harsh ride though as its my everyday car
is Weitec the best way of getting this?
