   stiffer the better I would have thought, seeing as your quite low. Deffo billies if you can afford them!

   +1 again on the Bilstein B8s. I have them on mine and they are totally sick.
   
   The group N damper would be even better if you can stretch to it. Bilstein stuff is very good as i have learnt but not so cheap either.
   
   You wont regret choosing this option.

    Agree with a car that low you really do have to stiffen things right up of you want it to work even half acceptably. Especially if you even plan on putting anything in the back of the car even again. Say people or shopping for example.
