Hi All
Thought that I would share a picture of my recently lowered Fiesta. While not as low as some of the other Fiestas I have seen lowered with Eibach springs ???? I must say that the handling is amazing. Now loving Canberra's roundabouts  |

That looks ace buddy. The Fiesta still looks a million bucks! Great wheels too.

Hi Guys
I have just been taking to waterskier about the height of his lowered Fiesta. His is a good inch lower than mine which is really confusing me. Can someone do me a big favour. If you have an unmodified WS could you post your wheel centre to top of wheel arch height for both front and rear. That way I can compare that to my measurements. For those that are interested, my lowered measurements are: Front 343mm and 350mm Rear 345mm and 338mm Cheers AU_Steve |

Thanks vhcbm will do. I have been told that it may lower a little more once it has settled. I am just curious on what the actually drop in height has been with the new springs from standard more then anything else. Like I said the handling is a big improvement over standard, so I am happy with that.

Apparently it is 30mm from non zetec height. If you have a zetec which you don't it is 15 or 20mm.
