I would lower my car either 2mm front/5mm rear or 5mm/10mm rear, the latter for looks. 10mm is not much if you take a look at a 10mm wrench and place it at the bottom of the fender.

Anybody can afford Ohlins, it's all about how you spend the money you have. I make my own lunches and bring them to work, don't eat out or go out drinking that much, and don't buy random things. Thus every few months I have a decent chunk of money to throw at my car if I so choose Sometimes I do the opposite and go out a bunch and then don't have car money, haha.

When you take care of you disabled mother it kinda puts a damper on the car fund a bit with all the bills…


But I do get the chance every now and then to splurge. Thankfully I do all the work myself saving tons of $$$$

Yes indeed in real units of measurement that people get (SI), 10mm=1cm. As 1 inch is 2.54 cms, it is really not much to drop it 5mm (that is 0.5 cm), which would be something like a fifth of an inch lol

Unless u slam the **** out of ur car and ur on ur own. My opinion only...
Meh.
