   I've just lowered Spax 60mm lowering springs and Apex rear dampers off of Kamracings websites...... Was just wondering if anyones had this setup before and if it's ok? I'm going for looks mainly but a little bit of handling would be ideal. Cheers.

   I used standard dampers (down -60mm) for abit once I realised the spax dampers were shot. It was fine, just abit more body roll.
   
   If your after handling.. save up for bilstein's with 150 lb/s springs, massive difference over spax/apex.

   Ah that's cool then As it's my daily driver I don't want it to be set up purely for handling, but aslong as I can have a little play and it handles OK then I'm happy

   The ride with the bilstein's and 150 lb springs is comfier than the full spax kit.. It was very 'crashy' -60mm.

   I'll probably buy that kit eventually when I have a bit more money etc, I just want it looking better at the moment as it's a bit Land Rover atm
