My VR6 has standard shocks but 40mm lowered springs and a nasty bumpy ride, it also rubs the back tyres on bumpy roads, I have D90's 8x16" all round with 195/40x16" stretched tyres and it's a 5 dorr. I've been looking along the lines of coilovers so I can get it low enough but not scrape, where with a shock and spring kit you have no adjustment so it may scrape, I wouldn't know till I'd fitted them and then its too late. I want some sort of comfort too, and not have the back loading too much as it is now under acceleration. A few of the kits I've looked at on the net say they adjust from -40mm
