(S) Is 35mm drop enough?

Hi all, And happy new year!

I have seen some OMP springs with a 35mm drop and i wonder if anyone can help with a few questions.

1, Will it be enough of a drop for a set of 18s or should i stick to 17s
2, Can i keep the standard shocks
3, Will i be able to get over speed bumps!

The plan is to get it lowered first (with the standard 16s still on) and then get a set of nice alloys, Has anyone got before and after pics as i have no idea what a 35mm drop will do!

thanks

35mm is an average drop for the car which will give you some comfort and improve the handling a great deal and the arches will take the 18" wheels fine but you might need a small spacer on the car [I think active Matt did when he fitted 18s].
Now if you want my opinion then I would also change the shocks FK sports shock is around £70 each for the fronts and gaz shocks do a good rear one which is ride adjustable and called GT7 £64 I think I wouldn't personally use the standard shocks .

Personally id drop it more than 35mm, depends how much you value comfort and speed over speed bumps tho

Hey Matt hows you going everything OK

Yeah not too bad fella, just keep checking back to see if my Stilo turns up, found out its been bought by someone in the next village to me, but doesnt appear to be being used, just sitting rotting away on a driveway
