   I am getting my car lowered next sat on apex springs, 50mm but im worried its not gonna be as low as i think or want so considering other options.
   
   If your car is lowered 50mm would you mind posting pics on here so i can see what it looks like
   
   Thanks

   looks nice, i think im going to do mine 50/50 does it require anymore than springs? or would u recommend shock upgrades?

   i was recomended anything over 40mm would need shocks aswell as springs, but someone might just be bullshitting me
