Lowering a Caldina GT...

Postby peas » Tue Mar 27, 2012 7:57 pm

Hey,

Just got some 17's and the GT definitely looks a little too high. What springs would you recommend to drop the car a bit (not speed bump hating low) without turning the ride into a rock hard POS. It is a ST215 non turbo, not sure if the GTT spring kits will be compatible...?

TIA

Tein S-Tech, one of the best springs for caldina's. Mates got them in his GTT, good compromise handling and comfort.

Tein S-Tech's fitted. Car feels great and still at a practical height for getting into driveways... and oh do we have a driveway!

Thanks Nick at Platinum Wheels for sort out the springs at a very decent price.
