Title: BBS LMs reps - 40mm springs??? Has anyone got this?? Is this low enough?
Post by: andrew.0 on 01 May 2012, 09:51

I am in the process of buying Koni str.t Shocks and Koni Sport 40mm Springs from europerformance.co.uk, and with the thought of eventually getting some BBS LM reps, but had a bit of a worry that these may look ridiculous on 40mm lowered.

Has anyone got a similar set up or any advice on this???

Thats the only thing when you get springs, your stuck at that height. For the extra money the coilovers will be worth it mate.

40mm springs and LM's is what I'm going for mate, when it's a daily driver it just becomes uncomfortable and impractical to have it dumped on its ass  :undecided:

A bit more bearable than being on its ass though!!!
