Goldie 2 Posted August 26, 2007 Dont raise it unless you really have to, they look and drive so much better when they are low.. What suspension have you got on it?? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bcstudent 0 Posted August 26, 2007 I'd agree that they look better, but I certainly wouldn't say they drive better. I much preferred the ride of my Corrado before it was lowered. Scraping over every speedbump is no fun either :( Knowing what suspension setup you currently have would be useful before you set about raising the ride height. I mean, if it's on coil-overs then you're laughing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Taggart 0 Posted August 26, 2007 I'd agree that they look better, but I certainly wouldn't say they drive better. I much preferred the ride of my Corrado before it was lowered. It's a matter of balance I think, lowered a reasonable height on good suspension and the car handles much better, standard suspension is a tad wollowy.

dinkus 10 Posted August 27, 2007 You need to look at what's on the car now really - if the suspension struts look like they've got big screw threads on (and they're not rusty as hell) then you should just be able to wind the ride height up. If it's stupidly low, then that is hopefully the case. If however, you have normal suspension with no threads on it, then I'm afraid it's new suspension time...
