Short rear shocks - D92 - 5:th-Jan-2017
Hi,
Hopefully this is in the right section.
Right now the car sits like this on the back
It cannot go any lower as it's still on standard rear shocks, can anyone recommend any shorter shocks that will let it sit lower?
Cheers,
Dave.

That's way to low as It is haha

I would guess you will need coilovers, perhaps the shocks manufacturers 'GAZ' could make you a custom set.

To go even lower than that I would consider air ride suspension. Love the wheels btw

Is this the same Astra that hit a pot hole and pushed the front drivers strut up into the bonnet a few weeks back.
RE: Short rear shocks - D92 - 6:th-Jan-2017
Yea, is same astra that hit pot hole haha
Got the wheels from a chap in Wales for 150 and refurbished them gun metal grey
Its on air at the moment, that's it fully aired out, but it can go lower, just limited by the stock shocks.
I'll take a look at GAZ shocks, Cheers
