marty just click the icon that looks like a pic second one in under I then put the link into the middle of the two img thingys ([img.]insert pic here[/img.])

H&R are 35mm lower and i go over lots of speed bumps never had a problem, i always slow down quiet a bit though for them  :smiley:

thanks for the idea but i doubt i will go on the street and measure them :grin:. What brand is yours as i can't find 20-25mm with H&R

Ive got Kw coilovers, so you can set the height to what ever you want
