My car was imported and has some Bilstein lowered suspension on it. The kit isn't dampening or ride height adjustable.

 

The actual quality of the ride is quite nice (not too stiff for the roads but a lot firmer than what the std suspension would be like).

 

I think the front seems very low. This is also down to the aftermarket front bumper. The 17" wheels also seem to scrub the wheel arch liners occasionally when on full lock.

 

I have not yet attempted to go over any speed bumps as of yet but id imagine it would catch as the front bumper seems to catch pretty easily on things like driving up my drive if I take it at a certain angle.

 

I don't see any point in replacing the shocks as these seem ok. What springs would be best suited to my needs...?

 

Here is some pics of the car in question.

Yea it is low.

 

So what springs would you recommend? Would it just be a case of changing the springs on the front shocks and leaving the rear setup alone as this seems ok?

Do you think there will be any problem running different back shocks/springs to the front?
