Na,JD they're standard as i've just lowered the gr. Considerably more bumpy (Apex) than the standard spring, Not all people will want to lower their FTO!
I'll lower anyones car for about 75euros. It's pretty hard work and takes all bloody day!

It took a while because, I decided to give all the bits,shocks etc a good clean,what's the point in sticking in some nice new springs and leaving the rest of underneath all manky, but a week later it all got dirty again! I didn't have an air-compressor thingy and the bolts were bloody tight!
