   As says in the title..
   
   Ive found this APEX kit on Kam Racing for £211.
   http://www.kamracing.co.uk/citroen/c...-kit-60mm.html
   
   Just wondering if anyone knows any setups which are any cheaper for the same quality?

   Have a read of that carefully man, only lowers a VTR 50mm.
   Theres a Spax set up which lowers a VTR/S 60mm though, tad more expensive than the Apex kit.
   
   And KamRacing tends to be the cheapest. Sometimes they do group buys on suspension kits, so could possibly get it cheaper then!

   Ohh yeh so it does! 50mm appears to be your option then! OR save up abit, get in on the GAZ group buy on 106oc. £400 delivered for the GHA coillies and rear shocks I think!
   
   Well worth the money!!!

   Well im going for 13" alloys and any higher than 60mm might look a bit silly :/
   
   £400 is alot of money! hmmm.. might be my only option though!

   60mm will still leave you looking a little high IMO. The Gaz Coilovers are great quality! 75mm would look much better than 60, I would say save up and go for GAZ!

   Can get a second hand Gaz coil over setup for a little more, they come up on here every now and then.

   on a VTR you won't get a true 60mm drop unless you go coilovers.
