he has to have cut springs...there is no way any lowered springs can go that low..my car was same as his by the sounds of it when I got it..until went over a bump and the rears fell out the struts...now got coilovers its lower than it was before..and yes its a c*nt of a thing to drive if U tune out and forget to be aware..of everything! lol and I cant make it up or down my driveway without laying timber planks first...lucky I dont have a licence so dont have to do that too often..when I get it back i'll rethink the ride height...

btw dude seems blommers got u sorted but if u wanna borrow my stock struts and can find some decent springs ur more than welcome.
