One of the best suspension brands out there and you'll be fine with the standard ARB and a 35mm drop.

Only thing to think about is changing the shocks at the same time.

thats why i went for the set up £275.00 and came with h+r springs and koni shockers in the box works great on th bends and is firmer over bumps etc but still perfectly fine for a daily runner
