I think they're fine.
I'm not restricted to one certain height and I'm not a hillbilly chopping coils.
worth looking at the ebbdude slalom driving videos too before

Hoop and myself dropped the perch down to the hub mount and welded it to that (not the shock).
And the corsa coilies are fine for track use, but i found that the shocks were very very stiff personally (and the only actual movement when daily driving, was me bouncing up and down in the seat
)

Woopa Pandastyle!
My coils are fine on the front! Not got helpers in either
Yeah, why bother faffing about with Corsa / Matiz struts and springs, when a set of eyes and straps will do the job
puting it down there how much dose that lower it by ?Hoop and myself dropped the perch down to the hub mount and welded it to that (not the shock).

Black&Yellow
Front struts £30 for both
Corsa dampers (rear) £20
Rear micra springs £15
But I had to buy rear springs as I didn't wanna chop my lowering springs

K11, and uncaptive springs are dodgy imo, so.....no
on the subject , i had this 2008 cleosity campus for a little while and the suspension is roughly twice as soft in damping quality than the corsa b .
but still firm/hard on speed bumps and cornering (very shockedsurprised when i flung it into corners and it held with a little leaning . had a look up the front arch and see a spring twice as wide as our standard one/ cosra b coils, and its half the length . some other versions of these springs are slightly narrower at one end called progressive rate spring or close to that,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,maybe another solution ? but fitment ?.
just letting you know one car got pg9 prohibition notice for not much front suspension movement
