Lowering springs damage CV joints?
Hi all.

Vauxhall did a health check on my GTC today and all good except both my CV joints are split. Unfortunately they said they won't be covered under warranty because it's a result of the Eibach's I've fitted.

Dealer fob-off or have they got a point?

Manager's calling me tomorrow, and i've done a quick bit of research myself and from what I understand the lowered springs cause the joint to sit at a different angle?

Any thoughts? Thanks all.

Lowering & widening advice please.
Hi Im thinking of going the Eibach Pro 30ml spring lowering kit route with my Gtc Sri 2ltr Cdti 3door 13 plate.

Also thinking of fitting Eibach pro wheel spacers. Has anyone had any experience with the springs, spacers, how wide to go, where to buy them and oh are they legal?
Many thanks from sunny Northumberland ??[Image: https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2017051...aaef0b.jpg]

Astra J lowering
Hi all

Picking up a 2013 2.0 CDTi Astra Elite on the weekend.

I am also planning on purchasing a set of 18" rims (GM# 13269540)
These are 225/40/R18

I want to drop the car a bit but not to a point that will ruin the ride. I live in the Cotswolds and the roads are bumpy as round here with a number of potholes.
Was thinking 30mm max.

Any suggestions on the rim and spring suggestion?


Thanks in advance all

Lowering and wheel spacers
Want to lower and maybe spacers on  my 2017 GTC 1.6cdti limited edition, there is a good 40mm/45mm space from wheel to arch on front and back, I have 20" rims on with factory 245/45/20 tires. Have measured the wheels with a straight edge to get distance from arch, 20mm spacers would be out past a bit 15mm maybe good front and back, any pics or feedback welcome

Astra J 1.6cdti ecoflex lowering
Hi all,

New to the forum so sorry if this has already been asked.


I have 18” astra gtc rims on my astra j 2015 but feel that it could do with a little dropping. Ive looked and can get a set of H&R springs from ECP but think the 30mm drop maybe a little too much for what im after?

Do the standard SRI springs fit as i know there 10-15mm lower than i have now?? That would be just nice for what im after

Any help would be appreciated
