Hi all,
Before I go into this I'd just like to wish everyone a safe & Merry Christmas. I hope you enjoy the day with family & friends. If your taking a break/holidays have a great time but please be safe & take care when driving. I just bought a really nice BF XR6 Falcon in Shockwave Mica it's stunning. I bought it knowing it was lowered as I like my cars to have a lower stance it looked pretty good but when it was delivered to me yesterday I could see that it was too low. Now as said it looks good but it's not practical for general road use. The problem I have is it's too low it's practically sitting on the bump stops. I measured underneath the car for it's current clearance & it was bang on 100mls but the exhaust pipes are hanging about 5-8mls too low in spots. It has 20's on it but the top of the guard is sitting just above the top of the rim about 15-20mls. Now I know there are springs that are set to height preference but I'm not sure which one I need for the height/stance that I want & be legal. So here's the question, what size/stage spring would you suggest I get to bring it up to sit just above the tires or have about 12-16cm road clearance or would I be better off getting adjustable coil overs? Your advice/suggestions would be greatly appreciated. P.S.: Maybe someone has a good set of Coil overs they're willing to part with? Cheers. Grahame. Last edited by BlueEA; 23-12-2023 at 11:08 AM.
