If you lower that much without changing the shocks the ride will be horrific.
Also the shocks can sometimes leak after a car is lowered.

still cant decide 40/40 or 50/50 i just dont want to spend £150 for it to look that same , has anyone chopped the front and put some other pig tailed springs on the rear like VW t4's etc do ? they put calibra/cavalier lowering rears springs on them as the propper ones are mad money

You've got a choice between either
a) spend your money and do a proper job with a proper set up
b) do a bodged job by 'chopping' or buying lesser quality springs which will result in
c) buying the correct set up anyways and more money outlayed for not listening
Olly (BlackC55) is a specialist in MBs and has a particular interest in performance mods. If you choose not to listen to what he and others say and want to skimp on a proper set up your ride and handling will be crap to say the least.
