   Ive just lowered my vts another 30mm on the back, so it's pretty much sat about 80mm on the back.
   
   I have only got 55mm springs (apparently) on the front but I want to go lower, what's the lowest springs you can buy???
   
   Can you get 70mm springs?
   
   
   Cheers

   I've seen them on ebay briefly.
   Haven't seen them for a few weeks though.

   anything over 60mill would always recomend upgrading your dampers

   60mm is lowest with springs, other wise any lower then that will need coilovers suitable to go the height you require.

   They're apparently 70mm springs, no idea what they're like in terms of ride comfort etc though.
   
   Edit:
   Just read this in the advert.
