   i am looking at lowering my car 45mm at the front and 55mm at the back am i going to be ok to keep my standard shocks on it for a while? money a bit short for the shocks and if so how easy is it to change the shocks after it has been lowered??

   you can use your standard shocks but it wont handle as well as if you uprated the shocks and they are quite easy to change if you know what your doing

   yeah there are a few people on here that run standard shocks on lowered cars, you can still change them after when the cash is there to do so
