Quite common brand and reasonably popular, do coil overs and electronically adjustable dampers etc etc , German origins I believe so probably good quality too.
TBH I think anything over 10mm is just too much for the J.

It doesn't matter what the wheel size is, the diameter should be the same, obviously though the larger the the tyre the wider it is generally. Personally I don't think the 30mm or 40mm is too much, you would have to take into account speed bumps, pot holes etc when driving.
I would stick to Eibachs for lowering on the J though because it's quite a hefty hatchback, that and it is tried and tested, but I don't think they do a 30mm drop for the 5dr. Saying that though, I have read on nemerous forums where different make springs have been used and can't remember reading any complaints or horror stories, and people aren't usually backwards when it comes to slating product ont tinterweb.

Anyone heard of these springs

Looking for a set of lowering springs myself always have fitted Eibachs to my other Vauxhalls in the past (but only the 30mm lower) Just wondering what choice of springs did you eventually go for & if so what size of drop?
ok guys everytime i search for lowering springs all i get is the Eibach pro system thats with shockers can i not just change the springs for a lowering set on my astra j 2.0 cdti ecoflex elite 2011 or do i have to fit both anyone out there can help ?

finally got the spring fitted the car now looks really cool 40mm was the right way to go, once it bedded in it went even lower, now got to keep away from speed bumps
