Spax VSX - Lowering Kit

b2_sport · 09-07-09, 04:23 PM

I recently bought a Spax VSX lowering kit that reduces ride height by 40mm. I thought about getting adjustables so I could get lower ride height like Coxy's B2 Sport. But my budget is not that big especially after tinting the windows recently

The Spax VSX kit consists of springs and gas filled shocks and is fairly straight forward fitting it to the car; replacing the old with the new.

I have had it on the car for about 5 days now and yesterday carried 4 people comfortabely which I was pleased about. The cornering has vastly improved, giving the car much more control and easier streering through bends.
The ride hardness has increased slightly but not as much as I expected which I am also pleased about, so if you are looking for comfort rather than rock hard spring rate then this is a perfect blend of the two.

Overall impressed with the quality of the kit compared to the price. Would I reconmend Spax VSX? Yes I would
