SRI springs

Am I right in thinking that the SRI springs are 10mm shorter than the other models?

they probably would work on the 2.0 cdti rusty and would be better than the SRI springs
but as side 10mm lower and sifter with the SRI but you wont really see a big difference
but if you do not want to go to low it may well be a good option over the standard springs

Yeah I've really been thinking and I thought a 30mm drop would be ok but the more I think about that it would be too much some the humps etc round my way are high enough that you can scrape on them even at 5MPH.

So a 10mm would be safe and it will close the gap abit (plus with the "lifetime warranty" they would be too thick too notice)...

What do you think on the price £67 posted for all 4 springs so far?

yes rusty i do have to be careful over speed bumps
with the 40mm drop still a nice drive but the odd pot hole
can make the car bump but still much better drive than the standard springs
