Hey all, I want to lower my car with the eibach sportlines, but i was woundering if changing the shock absorbers from the standard to maybe these....

Cant really afford coilovers, but is there any complete suspension kits out there for the grande punto or any other shock absorbers.

Cheers all

well as you were "woundering" there is no need to change the shocks with the eibach sportlines, they are made to go with your standard shocks.
so that should save you some pennies

"wondering" lol.
Would putting better shocks on make a difference!

Having gas assisted dampers at the rear would improve the drive, its not totally needed, but yes it would drive better. Although the back end feels less underdamped with the Eibachs on.

well by the time you spent out for shocks and springs and fitting you might as well get coilovers.
i got sportlines on mine with standard shocks. works peach and looks even better. now i changes the alloys it looks even lower, as the new wheels are wider........
" looks lower" before the inner circle state the fact that its probably the same ride height..........

cheers, will phone around for a price on getting the sportlines fitted and hopefully order them

i paid £350 all in, supply fit and full geometry set up if that helps. and it all came with a really nice report showing all the tolerance settings etc for the service history......
£200 labour seems a lot but on a new car i wanted it exact and you pay cheap you get monkeys.
well you dont get real monkeys............
